I've never been there. It appears to be just your typical small local zoo. I know it has/had small-clawed otters, meerkats, wallabies, alpacas and llamas, capuchins, tuatara, and a variety of aviary birds and farm-stock.

It looks like the zoo may not be closed . . a few parties have expressed interest in working to save the place.

Part of the problem may lie in it's entry fee - $3.5 for kids and $5 for adults. . .

heck, i'd pay 6 bucks for a kid if i got to see otters and monkeys. . . and it is noted for it's allowing kids to touch many of the animals. but the collection is not all that great.

I was just talking to a Nelsonite yesterday. The zoo is apparently very popular in Nelson and is a great place to take the kids. There has it seems been a bit of outcry over its potential closure, so it may stay open after all.
