The Catoctin Wildlife Preserve allows each guest to get as close to the animals as safety permits. To feel the silky soft fur of the chinchilla or see the muscles in a jaguar’s legs as he prowls within his naturalistic habitat are just a few of the experiences that will bring you closer to the animal world.

Our Official Guide to the zoo will provide all of the important information that you need to answer the questions that arise during your visit. Our helpful staff will be glad to give you more details about the Guide when you call to make a reservation.

The Catoctin Wildlife Preserve features more interactive touch and feed opportunities than any other zoo in the region.

Together we can make sure all the wild animals enjoy the future they deserve.
