The Santa Ana Zoo at Prentice Park is one of the jewels of the city, nestled in the midst of an urban setting, it provides an oasis like no other in Orange County. #HomeOfThe50Monkeys

This Zoo was founded in 1952 by Joseph Prentice, who requested at least 50 monkeys be kept at all times. It has since expanded to nearly 20 acres, offering a rain forest exhibit, several rare and endangered species, a walk-through aviary, a train ride, a Conservation Carrousel, a children’s zoo, an education amphitheater and classrooms, and much more!

Roam the rainforest, trek through the aviary, relax by the butterfly garden or on the deck enjoying the waterfall at Amazon's Edge, and feed goats and sheep at the Crean Family Farm.

The Zoo is an exciting place for kids of all ages, and is an educational institution great for observing primate behavior. Catch an animal show on the weekend, investigate the many botanicals on exhibit, or come out for one of the Zoo's signature special events or simply pack a picnic and watch your young ones enjoy the playground.

The Santa Ana Zoo at Prentice Park is home to a number of animals that are rescued, or could not survive in the wild including Spirit, our beautiful bald eagle. With many successful births over the years, the Santa Ana Zoo takes great pride in helping #savespecies and in a number of cases having the opportunity to re-introduce animals back into a natural habitat.

The Santa Ana Zoo features picnic areas and Knowlwood Cafe restaurant, and unique gifts can be found at the Treetop Toys gift store.
Rental areas are available for a birthday parties and special events.

Conveniently located just 10 minutes from Disneyland off the 5 freeway, The Santa Ana Zoo is one of the coolest, most tranquil, family-friendly, wheel-chair accessible places to hang out with friends in Orange County.

The Zoo mission statement:
To instill a passion for the natural world through recreation, conservation, and education.
