Connecticut’s Beardsley Zoo is one of Connecticut’s top family attractions.
Spend an hour or the whole day and see more than 300 animals representing primarily North and South American species. Come learn about our many endangered and threatened species, which include the Amur (Siberian) tiger, Andean condor, Ocelot, Red wolf, Maned wolf, Giant Anteater and Golden lion tamarin. Grab a bite at the Peacock Café, enjoy an outdoor lunch in the Picnic Grove and take a ride on our colorful carousel.
Connecticut’s Beardsley Zoo has a proud history of over 90 years as Connecticut’s only Zoo.
As an accredited member of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) and participant in its Species Survival Plan (SSP) programs, we are committed to the preservation of endangered animals and are actively developing strategies that will protect species and preserve their wild habitats.
Through education, conservation, research and recreation, Connecticut’s Beardsley Zoo provides a wonderfully wild experience for students and families.

One of the best gems here in our little state! Amazingly caring people creating an environment that encourages learning and exploration in all ages! If you have not taken a trip to the Beardsley Zoo, try to plan a day, you won't regret it, and I guarantee you will be back time and time again, I have!

My children celebrated their 1st and 2nd birthday with an Animal Encounter Party. The zoo party coordinators will accommodate your needs to the best of their ability, and our day-of party coordinator Michelle was as pleasant and helpful as they come!! Children and adults had a fun time at the party and exploring the zoo!

The food in the Rainforest Cafe has something for everyone, vegetarian options, healthy options, delicious egg sandwiches for breakfast. Not just the same chicken nuggets and fries all the time. Inexpensive and friendly staff. Worth the trip just for lunch.
