The zoo currently sits on 12 acres in Kamper Park, but we’re continuing to grow and expand, eventually planning on occupying 25 acres (not including parking). The Hattiesburg Zoo is AZA accredited. The veterinary team consists of one full-time veterinarian and one certified veterinary technician. We are working diligently to improve and grow our veterinary program as our zoo continues to grow. Named Best Travel Attraction of the Year by the Mississippi Tourism Association in 2017, the Zoo is also listed as the #1 thing to do in Hattiesburg by TripAdvisor.
