Construction of the Zoo began in 1968 and on August 29, 1970, the Henson Robinson Zoo was officially opened. Over the years, the Zoo has grown and expanded with the addition of several new animals as well as exhibits.
The Zoo is now home to more than 300 animals native to Australia, Africa, Asia and North and South America. Over 90 species of native and exotic animals are housed here among naturalistic exhibits.
