Best Hidden Destination In Missouri That Only Locals Know About

Lions, giraffes, zebras…wait, is this really Missouri we’re talking about? Or a wild safari in Africa? But surprisingly enough, this safari is right here in Missouri. Take a trip to Stafford’s Wild Animal Safari where you’ll find these animals roaming pretty freely.

Wild Animal Safari is a drive-thru animal park where over 70 different species of animals live.

Guests can choose from taking a ride on the safari tour bus or driving through the park in their own car.

Purchase a feed bag beforehand to give the animals a snack. They may even let you pet them.

At zoos, you're probably used to seeing these animals in cages and blocked off from the public.

But at the Wild Animal Safari, these animals get really close.

Oh hey, king of the jungle. You're looking extra majestic today.

Puppies are cute and all, but baby cows are on whole other level of adorableness.

After the safari, head over to the gift shop to find a unique souvenir...or to pet an alpaca.

Wild Animal Safari is located at 124 Jungle Drive in Strafford, MO. To find out about rates and hours of operation, you can give them a call at 417-859-5300 or visit just their website.
