Submitted by Dana Shemesh on Fri, 05/10/2024 - 10:10am

Kids get up close to gentle farm animals at Zoo Atlanta's petting zoo, Outback Station.

Visit a petting zoo or animal farm in Atlanta when the weather warms up and kiddos want to mingle with friendly, four-legged critters. Petting zoos and animal sanctuaries beckon Atlanta families to enjoy creatures, big and small, from pigs and horses to giraffes and camels. Perhaps even lions, tigers, and bears...oh my!

Most petting zoos and animal sanctuaries advise visitors not to feed the animals unless it's feed that they provide (either included with admission or purchased for an additional fee). So grab plenty of hand sanitizer, wet wipes, plastic gloves (bison slobber is no joke), and snacks for the kids and head out to an Atlanta petting zoo, animal farm, or animal sanctuary.
