The otters are so cute ! If you need a wheelchair, rent the motorized one. Trust me! The manual chairs are a disaster.

The otters are adorable! Signs about the animals all over the zoo are informative. If you get to volunteer for Big Zoo Day, do it! It's so enjoyable.

The red pandas are so freakin’ cute , it doesn’t even matter there weren’t any other animals there. The peacocks were up to their usual antics.

Clarence Mason

Small but nice zoo . Loved the bird room but the lion's den and tiger exhibit were by far the children's favorite.

Jenine Gatewood

Small and inexpensive ! Perfect to get the kids out of the house for an afternoon.

Amy Cummings

Check out the Wonderland of Lights during the holiday season!

Gerald Rhead

Great value for the money. Really cool zoo for a community the size of Lansing

Bruce Rick

Nice small zoo . My wife and I spent a few hours here and enjoyed it. It is a smaller zoo , just so you know, not like going to Toledo or Detroit.

Amanda LaFay

The oldest zoo in the state , dating back to 1920 when the first animals arrived! Small but expanding. Projected plans are available on thief website.

Chris Neiman

Super fun! Loved watching the animals being fed especially the Otters !

Theron Miller

Check out the big cat & primate house for close up views of tigers and primates.

Jessi Shaffer

A great way to spend the day, a Lansing delight! Scenic and beautiful, you can really get up close to the animals in as natural a setting as possible for a zoo .

Michelle Washburn

Amazing place for kids to explore and see the animals.

Jayson Schoeberlein

Buy a membership here to zoological society. It's like $50 for the family a year and gets you into almost any zoo in the country for free or next to nothing. Potter park zoo free membership.

Super fun good for all ages

Go see the lions and tigers inside. And ride the camel.

Beth

Lots of fun for the whole family

Stephanie Orme

Decent zoo ; small exhibits , missing a few of the really exotic animals, but the price ($4 for Ingham county residents, $10 for non-residents) it's a nice day out. Read more

Cheap admission for kids... great value

Stacy Lukasavitz

The tigers are the best part!

They really need to be honest about entrance fees. Not entrance fee + fee for what county you live in.
