Saint Louis Zoo, Zoo in Forest Park, St. Louis, Missouri.
The Saint Louis Zoo encompasses 90 acres of land with specialized habitats for 18,700 animals representing 603 species from different continents.
Following the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair, citizens acquired the Smithsonian's walk-through bird exhibit, establishing the foundation for the current zoo.
The Zoo provides educational programs, science camps, and research initiatives that reach 3 million visitors annually through conservation awareness activities.
Entry to the Saint Louis Zoo remains free for all visitors, with additional charges applying only to specific attractions like the Zooline Railroad.
The Judy and Jerry Kent Family Sea Lion Sound features a 1.5-acre habitat where visitors walk through an underwater tunnel among swimming pinnipeds.
