The
second part of your trip will be the birds and mammals located outside after
you exit out the reptile house! 3+ acres to explore the beautiful animals of
Luray Zoo!
Luray Zoo
is a rescue zoo; we do not buy, sell or trade animals. The animals that come
here are confiscated, unwanted/abused exotic pets, or retired zoo animals. When an
animal arrives it stays for life. Every animal here has its very own special
story on how they came to live here at Luray Zoo!
Luray Zoo houses a wide variety of mammals
and birds of prey. Just to name a few....Striped Skunk, Bengal tiger, Andean
condors, African crested porcupine and much more!
Here at Luray Zoo you will see the animals up close and
personal, an experience you and your family will never forget! Also, while
you are touring the zoo there will always be someone available to answer
your questions, at Luray Zoo we do not hide behind the scene but instead
we're out to help you the visitor have the best time possible!
