Hattiesburg Zoo (Visit this link)
Enter the Zoo, take a stroll down the promenade and get face-to-face with prairie dogs or continue on to the African Veldt to encounter antelope, zebra, ostrich, monkeys and servals. Stop by and visit the South American exhibit - home of the tapir, capybaras, llamas, howler monkeys, macaws, iguanas and the new jaguar. Stop at the tiger overlook to get a birds eye view of the largest cat on earth. Continue down the tiger boardwalk to get an up close view of American Alligators. The park area has landscaped walking trails, grassy picnic areas, and playgrounds.
The Hattiesburg Zoo also offers several other attractions that make your visit worthwhile. Kids of all ages will enjoy riding the carousel or taking a peaceful train ride around the zoo. Children five and under must be accompanied by an adult. Both rides cost $1.25 per person. If you find the weather a bit warm, you can stop by the concession stand to cool off with an Icee, slush or soft drink. You can also purchase snacks including crackers, popcorn, chips or candy. Stop by the gift shop and purchase souvenirs, stuffed animals, music, toys and t-shirts.
