Welcome to Cosley Zoo

Cosley Zoo gives visitors up-close interactions with nature right in the heart of the suburbs. Nestled on five acres, Cosley Zoo is home to farm animals and native wildlife. Visitors will discover exhibits that immerse them in natural habitats for white-tailed deer, red fox, Blanding’s turtles, a coyote, and more. Cosley Zoo is also a center for animal education and conservation, offering programs that teach young and old how to care for the world around them and give back to the communities in which they live, work, and play.

Please Share Your Feedback About the Cosley Zoo 25 Year Vision for Exhibit Renovations
Cosley Zoo has been in operation for over 50 years with many exhibits and support facilities showing signs of age and deterioration that have evolved beyond day to day maintenance. In 2024, a comprehensive existing conditions assessment was conducted for exhibits and support facilities. The report identified key opportunities for renovation and modernization to better support animal welfare, improve operational efficiency and enhance overall visitor experience. Learn more about the concepts and share your feedback at the Public Meeting on May 2 at 10A (upstairs in Kiebler Barn), or by viewing and completing our online form.
