Dickerson Park Zoo, Wildlife park in Springfield, Missouri, United States.
The 70-acre Dickerson Park Zoo houses 500 animals from Asia, Africa, Australia, South America, and native Missouri across specialized habitats.
The Springfield Park Board established the zoo in 1922, with major developments occurring through Works Progress Administration funding in the 1930s.
The institution maintains an animal hospital, conducts wildlife rehabilitation programs, and participates in international conservation efforts for endangered species.
The zoo charges admission fees of $19 for adults, $14 for children aged 3-12, $16 for seniors over 60, with free entry for children under 2.
The Titus Express miniature train takes visitors on a lakefront tour past primate islands, while a viewing deck allows face-to-face encounters with giraffes.
