Can’t wait for it to be back to normal. I knew the birds were put away due to the bird flu, but I didn’t process exactly how many animals would be off exhibit. I also didn’t realize how much of the zoo was under construction. There is only a fraction of the animals to see. And with temps fluctuating less critters want to venture out of their cozy inside homes. The dead end after the bug house that makes you go up the exit if you want to see the tigers was definitely packed and a bit overwhelming. We missed the rainforest and orangutans. We loved seeing new murals, updated paths, and new enclosures (without animals at this time). There was also updates to food/snack areas. We look forward to when flu numbers go down, construction is done, and the zoo has more to see and do. Right now I’m not sure I’d pay full price again for a small part of the actual animals on display. Love this zoo and will definitely be back when things calm down.

Thanks for the comments - the avian flu really has been a wrinkle we couldn't predict and hope that it's out of our area very soon. As soon at the Indiana Department of Animal Health gives us the green light - the birds will be back on exhibit. That also means you will be able to venture into the Indonesian Rain Forest dome and see the orangutans and birds that call that area home. We hope it's very soon!

Definitely get here early in the morning for less of a crowd. Overall, it was a nice zoo. The train was not open during my visit, but everything else was.

The last time we were here was about a year before Covid started. So plenty has changed in that time. They still have rides for guests like the carousel, sky safari ride, crocodile creek log ride, and the train. Guests can also feed certain animals like giraffes, goats, and stingrays, or ride on pony’s. Be sure to stop by their concession stands for a pretzel or something to drink. They have a large variety of animals throughout the zoo. This place is ideal for small children and families. In order to exit the zoo, you’ll have to pass through the gift shop.

The zoo is so nice. It is divided into areas so Africa takes about an hour and a half, Indonesia takes about an hour and a half, Australia takes about an hour, and the family farm. You can spend a whole day or just a morning.
The animal enclosures are up to date and they really care about the animals.it is perfect for all ages, wheelchair accessible, and so much to see and do. I learn something new every time I go. It has been there since 1965 and just gets better and better.

I’ve lived in quite a few different parts of the country and have went to several zoos, this is definitely one of the best! Especially for the Halloween trick or treating for the kids

We love visiting this zoo! We hadn't been for two years and nothing really seemed different but we love all the rides and activities. Yes, you pay extra for those items but it is an affordable museum. We have the children's museum membership in Indy and was able to get half price off at this zoo.
My children loved the pony rides. I love the crocodile water ride. The goat area is a favorite as well. The set up of this park is perfect. We really like the several different sections and how it is laid out.
The only issue is the bees. There isn't much a zoo can do about it but you can't even enjoy a one minute lunch without them coming for you. My daughter ended up getting stung in the goat area. She was walking and not even bothering them. We still had a great time.

Thanks for the kind review of the Fort Wayne Children's Zoo. I am so sorry to hear your daughter was stung. We continue to work on ways to eliminate the bees this time of year. We hope you and your family will visit us again soon.

We have had the opportunity to visit this local gem several times with our grandchildren in the past 3 years. What a pride and joy for the Fort Wayne larger community. Great to be able to feed giraffes.

A little gem that we almost missed taking in. Very few cons for this zoo at all. There are times within the zoo you forget your in one because it really feels like you're on a nature walk instead of visiting a zoo. Animals are not all visible at all times because they have areas where they can easily hide from the crowds if they want and it all looks like a natural setting.
We did not have enough time to get to the Africa or Central zoo settings but took in the Indonesian Rainforest and the Australian Outback. Both have areas where you can walk into the enclosures and view the animals very upfront and personal without touching them. We hit several times/areas where they were getting fed so that was a bonus.
Only cons we really had were food options were expensive so I would suggest bring your own as long as it's reusable, you can bring it in. No plastic straws or one-use plastics are allowed. If you're going to take advantage of the rides (we didn't), get the tickets at the gate because it was hard to find places to buy the tickets. The rides have long lines as well that we could see so plan on standing in line for a bit if you want to go.
Sting Ray bay was nice but a small area and very crowded - mix that with some pushy people and it didn't take us long to leave the area. If you are coming for this specifically, go early or wait to even get close to the touching area.
No electric scooters available to rent. This is a huge downfall for any elderly person or anyone who may not have the ability to walk as much as this requires you to do so. This is something that every place at this point in time should be offering.
Outside of those few cons, this little zoo is a great place to visit. And, for those wondering, you can come and go as needed so if you want to pack a picnic and leave it in the car until lunch, you can do that. There were many families eating lunch picnic style along the entrance greenway. Will definitely be going back to see the rest of it.

We drove 2.5 hours to come to the zoo. In the past I rated the zoo a 5. Not now.
The lions and several other animals were off display. Many others were no shows. All hidden in nooks and crannies that you can not see them. I call that bad habitat design.
The captive food prices are ridiculously high. $4.30 for a 20 Oz bottle of pop. $8 for 6 inch pizza.
Then a lot of the food places were closed.
Also a lot of the bath rooms were closed

How big are the wagons available for renting? Would a six year old be able to sit in it and be pulled by an adult if they get tired from walking?
FortWayneZoo
Fort Wayne, IN
Yes I think the wagons would be large enough for the average 6 year old. We aren't a very large zoo so most little ones don't seem to have a problem with the number of steps. Lots to see in a small area. Hope you enjoy your visit!
