Santa Fe College Teaching Zoo - Gainesville (FL)

5 /5 Mike B: Amazing zoo with great staff! Its a very clean zoo and its lay out to see all animals is great! Monkeys, birds, boars, snakes, turtles, Nyala, and so much more! There was a massive peacock walking around the paths, beautiful animal. I suggest! 10 dollars per adult and and 6 bucks with seniors and small children.

5 /5 Laura Seigworth: Awesome little shady zoo. Cant beat $10 per adult these days. Keepers were friendly and had lots of cool information about the animals. They also have a nice little playground for the kids.

5 /5 Julie Garrett: 10-20-24 Small, intimate zoo in a shaded, natural space (but within earshot of I-75). Student zookeepers take great care of the enclosures and animals, and are stationed throughout to answer questions. Great for young children. Gibbons, a variety of small monkeys, otters, tree kangaroos, bald eagles, tortoises, parrots, ibises, snakes, etc. Simple playground for young kids (complete with visiting peacock). There are picnic tables out front if you want to have a meal here. Vending machine with drinks and a water fountain.

5 /5 DMarx: This zoo is wonderful. It’s really easy to forget we even have such a great place in Gainesville. But if you havnt been it’s worth going. The monkeys are particularly rambunctious and all the animals here seem to be very well cared for. Located conveniently a stones throw away from I75. Come on down to the Santa Fe zoo. Where they have a duck, snakes, lizards, and so much more!

5 /5 Cyndi Wells Thomas: It is a small zoo, which makes it so peaceful. Lots of nice shade.
