Oglebay's Good Zoo & Benedum Planetarium (Visit this link)


Come and visit over 80 species of animals nestled in 30 acres of flowers, trees, hills, and valleys. Don't miss this season's very special exhibit, a rare white alligator!

Watch our native North American animals: bears, river otters and rare red wolves in their natural habitats, and also visit an ocelot, red pandas and tamarin monkeys. And, don't miss our exhibits featuring species from Africa - meerkats and naked molerats!

The indoor Discovery Lab is designed to make learning about animals fun and easy for children. It includes a variety of hands on activities as well as animal exhibits such as the colorful poison dart frog and tiger salamander.

Visit our barn filled with friendly domestic animals such as llamas, ponies, pigs and donkeys. You can even feed the goats and deer!

Take a break and watch a show in the Benedum Planetarium where the big screen pulls you right into the action.

Journey through the zoo on the historic C.P. Huntington Train Ride. This one and a half mile train ride will take you by the grasslands exhibit featuring intriguing ostrich.

A walk through the Wonders of the Wetlands will introduce visitors to our crane, bald eagles and various other plants and animals that call these fragile areas home.
