“only zoo & botanical garden in the state”

ZooMontana is unique within a 500-mile radius! For over 10 years, locals and visitors to the area have enjoyed the 70-acre zoological park and botanical garden. Our animals originate from areas with similar climates and temperatures to those found in the Billings. Exhibits are constructed using state-of-the-art natural habitat techniques. Plant and animal living collections are not only those native to the northern Rockies and high plains but also from northern latitudes of Europe and Asia. This combination positions ZooMontana as a unique and interesting collection of approximately 50% exotic and 50% native species. Hosting over 70,000 visitors annually, ZooMontana is one of the regions most popular tourist attractions. We are the only zoo and botanical garden in the state.

Great place to stretch your legs. I’m giving it a three only because we must have visited at the worst time because very few of the animals were out. The kids were disappointed, but we couldn’t wait around. We did get to see all of the birds, a Buffalo and the indoor reptiles. It was a nice walk. Everything seems very natural which we loved. They have a massive playground which made up for the lack of animals. You also don’t want to leave without some shaved ice. Hopefully, you fair better with the animals.

This is a nice little zoo, right off the highway, easy to get in and out of, good parking, nice gift shop, good walkable layout. It's not huge by any means and can be done in under 2 hours, but was just a nice stop for us, the bears were super neat.

The animals are so well taken care of…and you have the opportunity to get very close! Some of our favorites included the bison, the gray wolves…and the boys’ all-time fave was the Siberian tiger. That tiger loved following them back and forth along the glass!

Oh! And did we mention the GRIZZLY BEARS!!
