Our Animals
Aikman Wildlife Adventure is host to over 220 animals comprised of over 90 different species native to six different continents. Come see them up close and personal.

Adventures and Encounters
Each adventure provides a different experience from driving through our mile-long path of zebras, camels, water buffalo and more to walking among many other animals.

Group Tours
Our guests will ride on a Wagon Tour where they will feed and interact with animals in our Drive-Thru. Visitors can then do the Walk-Thru on their own, which includes the Petting Zoo.

Museum of Prehistoric Life
In the Museum of Prehistoric Life, see and interact with life-size examples of animals from the past. Then experience encounters with animals in our Walk-Thru Adventure.
