Our efforts of displaying large herds in a more natural habitat are unprecedented in the zoo community and have led our animals to live longer. Lion Country Safari has been a conservation leader since opening. What makes the campground so unique is the experience of sleeping yards from wild animals at Lion Country Safari’s drive-through safari. Campers can hear lions roar and siamangs hoot throughout the day! Animal Conservation The Travel Channel Ranked Lion Country Safari’s KOA as a one of the top five places to “pitchĪ tent” in the United States.

Speaking of babies, in 2015, Lion Country Safari welcomed over 50 animal births. Drive at a slow pace so you don’t miss any animals – they have many acres to roam in their habitat and some of the babies may be hiding in the grass next to the road or in your rear view mirror. Cooler days or rainy days are also great times to visit because the animals tend to be more active then. Mornings are a great time to visit the preserve because most animals get fed then many of the antelope chow down right next to the road. The preserve tour takes about an hour and a half. An audio tour (cd/cassette) will be provided upon arrival to tell you about all the amazing animals and a JAMBO guide will offer a great visual. Your admission covers entry into both the drive-through safari and the walk-through amusement park – 2 parks for 1 price!
