Mountain Wild Animal Safari is a 200-acre drive-through zoo filled with
over 700 free-roaming animals from every continent except Antarctica.
You can use your own vehicle, rent one of their Zebra Vans or take the
seasonally available guided tour bus, and there's nothing like
hand-feeding a slobbering American bison, elk, zebra or giraffe as they
greet you along the way. Their Walk-About section features dozens of
other exotic animals kept at a safer distance, including Siberian
tigers, Bactrian camels and numerous ligers (the species that results
from mating a male lion and a female tiger). The park also boasts a
Georgia Wildlife Museum featuring wildlife native to the state in a
natural setting. Check out Animal Safari for more details about this
great family attraction.
