Wonderful experience. The students all are very caring and excited to talk to children. They really made my 3 6ear old feel at home!

The EATM facility of Moorpark College is a great place to visit and see and experience a great wild animal training facility. The students, teachers and employees are so knowledgeable and love their mostly furry and featured charges. Make sure to check out the big cats and eagles. This is a special place. Enjoy.

For a small local zoo that kids and elders will like choose this. Just the right size without being overwhelming for those that don’t need the mega zoo walking or crowds. The students put on nice educational shows and the animals are well cared for. Bravo!

This is a nice zoo to bring the kids to as the students are great at educating and answering questions for the kids. This is a teaching zoo and really nice to see how the college is providing animal behavior training, training how to interact with the public and not just how to clean a cage. The setting is beautiful looking out over the campus. Was very impressed.

We are fortunate to see and experience up close how our educational system is working to teach both the students and the visitors. I appreciate how the students of the teaching zoo are taking care of the animals and educating the common citizen about their lives and habitats. A must see for child and adult!

As a close neighbor to this quaint little zoo, I recommend a visit for the entire family. The animals are well cared for, and the best part about it is that students at the college are doing the maintaining. By supporting this venue we are not only enjoying the animals,but supporting our youth with their future endeavors. My kids are grown now,but they were lucky to grow up with a magical "wild kingdom" in ear shot and the ability to visit them. Just the other day they mentioned how unique it was to wake up to the lions 🦁 roaring. Take an afternoon and visit. It is easily accessible and plenty of parking. Great activity for the entire family!

Just wandering through the zoo, many of the animals were inside their habitats, possibly due to warm weather. The wires on the cages are closely spaced, so somewhat difficult to see the animals and certainly hard to take pictures of them. Our 'Behind the Scenes' tour had way too many people in it (nearly 20), so if you were at the very front you got to see and hear everything. Unfortunately, the people in the front did not think to allow the rest of us a turn to be in front and the lead guide didn't suggest it either. The ladies in the 'Secret Agent' animal show did a good job. The young people that are part of the staff seem to know a lot about the animals and share interesting tidbits with you.

Admission price is cheap. I recommend spending more for the behind the scenes tour. You see more animals, see where and how the food is prepared and have a knowledgable student tour guide to give you the tour. Place is laid out, easy to follow. Lots of animals, even a 500lb. tortoise, lion , etc. they put on an animal show also. My only negative issue is the beavers pool had a pretty strong smell of chlorine, which I would think would not be good for him, but I'm not a vet. Good all around fun, great for the family and small kids. Great cause to support.

Our son and his wife wanted to take their 3 -year-old here for a weekend (Sunday afternoon) jaunt, and my wife & I said "Sure!" we'd come along. The zoo as a "ZOO" is not all that impressive, but, after all, it's the college's "teaching zoo." The students do, however, put on a really nice "get acquainted with different animals" show. Our 3-year granddaughter (and her parents and we seniors) were entertained by the presentation in the small arena. The "show" lasted about 25 minutes, and, thankfully, we were able to sit in the shade on this 90-degree day.

We went to the teaching zoo as part of a birthday celebration four our god children. It was really well-organized and fun. The students running the show were great, informative and interesting. The kids loved it! There was an area set up with tables for the food/ gifts. Not super expensive.

Hi, I don't go to any zoo, circus, or aquarium, only sanctuaries that don't make their money by having wild animals do things like elephant rides in Thailand or painting with their trunks since I'm all too familiar with how a wild animal is taken, and broken into a lifetime of slavery. I am sure that you treat the animals in your care well, but before I bring my little grandson, I want to know how you get the animals in your care? And if you breed? I'm a little confused the the "Teaching Zoo" title. Does it teach how to train wild animals to perform, thus encouraging the circle of stealing them from their natural homes, and breaking their spirit? Even if that is not done by your facility, is your school encouraging that indirectly by training students to become professional handlers? Or do you rescue your animals from bad situations & try to give them a better life? Most of the animals I see online are not native to our wildlife, so my question really is, what value are you adding to an animal's life, before I introduce my 3 yr old grandson to yours. Thank you kindly.

Thank you for your interest in visiting America's Teaching Zoo at Moorpark College. The Teaching Zoo is a wonderful educational experience for "kids of all ages". Our spectacular animals come from varying backgrounds and each one has a special story we want to share with our guests. We suggest that visitors not only admire the animals, but ask our many wonderful student/keepers plenty of questions. That is why we are called a "Teaching Zoo", everyone who visits is inspired to learn. Safety and animal care are our top priority, and our graduates have successful careers at some of the finest animal care facilities in the country. We hope you decide to visit with your grandson. Thank you for your time.
