The other drive yourself through Safari Park I have been to did not allow any feeding of animals and more variety of animals. That said, this was pretty darn cool seeing the animals look you right in the eye all up close and personal. It was like they were staring into my soul. Relatively inexpensive. I would recommend if you are doing other things in the area, not necessarily making a special trip just for this. read more

Great place to bring your kiddos! Not a large selection of animals however, it was educational and my 3 kids loved the up close and personal interaction they had with all the animals, especially the camels! It is a drive through experience so if you don't want zebra drool and donkey poo on your wheels you can opt for the guided tour ( for a extra couple of bucks ) read more

I can honestly say I never had so much fun! We got there and the lady suggested we take the guided tour instead of just driving through the park (aimlessly) on our own. It is the BEST way to get the full experience of the animals. I laughed so hard from the second we took off. We had the BEST GUIDE in the world. He knew so much about the animals, gave all sorts of information and took the time to make sure everyone on the bus got to pet/feed all their favorite animals. I love the ZDONKS, half Zebra and half Donkey. They were the cutest things, running alongside the bus to get petted. I was a travel agent for 20 years, been on African Safaris. No where can you pet animals like that and all in one space. I took so many photos and I look back on them all the time. I will be back again, and again. Thank you so much. read more

Wild Country Safari Park - Zoos Near Me - Epps, Louisiana

We had a great time! Well, most of us did. One of our group climbed into the back of the truck (on top of his bike) and wailed because he was afraid the bison was going to lick him. My wife and I were laughing so hard we couldn't breathe. My younger child tried to feed the bison then said "thank you" while pulling the cup back in. Enter the head of a bison into his lap! We eventually figured out the animals will back off if you start raising the window. Even a bison as big as our Honda Pilot was fairly gentle when we cut it off. There was a little drama when another animal started butting heads with a bison to get to the food. I think we got a new scratch but nothing major. Things calmed down when we got away from the huge animal herd. My terrified son stopped screaming and eventually came back to his seat. He even fed a zebra. How cool is that to be so close to a zebra you can pet it?! We also saw camels, a zorse, some donkeys and some antelope. The animals in the deer family (elk, maybe?) were least used to humans and did not allow us to feed them. Back at HQ, they gave us more feed for the nearby pens. We walked over and had a great time feeding deer and kangaroos. The deer liked to lick our hands--something about the salt, I think. Unlike the 45-lb bison tongue, their licks were like a little dog. It was sweet. We also got to feed some ostriches and see a llama. All-in-all a great time. Pro tip: keep your windows all the way up and lower them just enough to get the cup out. Otherwise you'll have a huge head in your lap! read more

We drove 20 minutes out of the way to visit this safari. We drove down a long beat up road to find a sign that said closed. It was 2:30 on a Tuesday. read more

We had a great time at the zoo. The staff was very helpful and so kind. Definitely worth the drive.

Really fun wildlife park and petting zoo! Fun for the whole family. Feeding the animals from the car was exciting and made us all really laugh. Staff is very friendly, passionate and knowledgable. read more

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! What a fun, interactive place! My husband and I went today and laughed harder than we have in years....I mean HUGE belly laughs! Where else can you have a bison lick you through your open window while a zebra eats from your kibble cup? Or have a camel munching out of your cup next to an impatient zebra? Debbie and Bennie were great hosts! Just a bit of advice, once you roll your windows down, keep them down!! read more
