3 Palms Zoo & Education Center

Nestled in Townsend, Delaware, 3 Palms Zoo & Education Center is a unique rescue sanctuary dedicated to providing a safe and loving home for animals in need. As Delaware's largest zoo, we offer an interactive and educational experience for the whole family, with a mission focused on animal rescue.

Explore our diverse collection of over 200 rescued animals, including surrendered pets, displaced exotics, and unreleasable wildlife. Visitors can get up close and personal with a wide variety of species, from free-roaming farm animals like goats and turkeys to majestic birds, and the state's only alligator exhibit. You can even feed the cutest & friendliest prairie dogs you'll ever get the chance to meet.

Our seasonal events, like "Boo! at the Zoo!," transform the zoo into a family-friendly wonderland, offering themed decorations, music, and memory-making moments. Whether you're hand-feeding a friendly llama, learning about our resident coyote and foxes, or simply enjoying the tranquil environment, every visit supports our mission of animal care and education. 3 Palms Zoo is more than a destination; it's a community hub where families can connect with nature and learn about the importance of animal welfare.
