We’ve come a long way since opening our doors way back in 1889! Zoo Atlanta has changed dramatically since the earliest days of our Victorian origins, from the fascinating series of events that led to Atlanta’s first zoo, to the legendary Willie B., to the history of our giant panda program. We thank you for being part of the journey , our story is still being told!
Our story began in 1889 with a traveling menagerie that went bankrupt near Atlanta , and never left.
Zoo Atlanta is fortunate to have an outstanding group of business and community leaders, advocates and ambassadors dedicated to the Zoo and its success.
