Support
The Cohanzick Zoo relies almost entirely on public support in order to maintain our animals’ habitats, and to remain a FREE resource to our area.
A Zoo For All
The Cohanzick Zoo strives to be a sanctuary for all types of animals, not just the typical exotic ones you’d expect. From our humble beginning as a home for a displaced herd of deer, to our current list of residents ranging from Bengal Tigers, a raccoon, to even a common box turtle, every animal that comes to us is given specialized care to thrive in its new home, potentially even getting a second chance at life. We encourage you to learn more about our current animals and how you can best help us support them!
Not Just For The Animals
The Cohanzick Zoo prides itself on being a resource for our local youth and communities to learn about more than just the animals we house, but about our local ecosystems and wildlife, as well. We offer a variety of programs for all ages throughout the year, many of which are free or low-cost.
