Ponderosa Zoo is a fantastic destination for animal lovers and families. Home to over 100 animals, including lemurs, meerkats, alpacas, and wallabies, the zoo offers a variety of engaging activities and exhibits. In June, you can expect special events and activities designed to entertain and educate visitors of all ages. Keep an eye on their website for specific event announcements closer to your visit.
