Whilst previously, the centre was home to a variety of domestic animals including pigs, goats and cattle, we now look after over 100 animals from lemurs and reindeers to tortoises and snakes. Although Ponderosa Zoo has grown over the years, our 'Bridge the Gap' vision remains one of our key priorities by ensuring the zoo is accessible to all. Our team of hard working individuals are passionate about promoting animal welfare, as well as educating visitors on conservation efforts and threats many species now face in the wild. In 2021, we took another step in our journey by becoming full BIAZA members.
