Santa Ana Zoo: “Home of the 50 Monkeys”

For an attractive admission price, the Santa Ana Zoo opens up the worlds of Africa and India through their variety of resident animals. The Santa Ana Zoo is known as home to 50 monkeys, at the request of their founder in 1952. Now spanning 20 acres in a spot not too far away from Coventry Court Apartments, the zoo is also home to exotic creatures housed in plush recreations of their natural climates. Favorite exhibits include Tierra de las Pampas, featuring native South American animals in their natural grassland environment, and Amazon’s Edge, a waterfall habitat for howler monkeys and various birds. Exhibits stress education in addition to conservation, with a number of endangered monkeys calling the Santa Ana Zoo home. The zoo also offers a number of additional educational programs for visitors and school groups. Adults and families can get up-close education by traveling on a Wild Safari through the zoo.
