El Paso Zoo
El Paso Zoo serves as a regional center for family fun, education, and conservation efforts for wildlife and natural resources. Currently the Zoo is home to over 220 species of animals including mammals, reptiles, amphibians, fish, and invertebrates from North and South America and Asia. The Zoo also has a carousel, as well as food and gift opportunities. New African exhibits featuring lions, zebras, and giraffes and other Africa animals opened in 2010. Phase one of the new Reptile House is also open. Excitement and discovery can be found at special animal encounters throughout the zoo and everyday at elephants at noon and at sea lions at 11:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m.
