Santa Ana Zoo, Zoo in Santa Ana, California, US
The Santa Ana Zoo spans 20 acres with numerous exhibits focusing on Central and South American animals, including primates, birds, and reptiles.
Joseph Prentice donated the land in 1952 to establish a public zoo, requiring a minimum of 50 monkeys to remain on site at all times.
The zoo maintains strong connections with South American wildlife through exhibits like Amazon's Edge and the Colors of the Amazon Aviary.
Located at 1801 East Chestnut Avenue, the zoo operates daily from 10 AM to 4 PM, with special free entry for Santa Ana residents every third Sunday.
The Zoofari Express train and Conservation Carousel provide educational entertainment while teaching children about wildlife preservation and natural habitats.
