Interacting with wildlife promises unforgettable moments. Some happen quite spontaneously. You look out your window to find deer grazing in your yard. Or you cross paths with a turtle at the park. Others are planned, maybe even a dream come true, like watching dolphins leap in the ocean from your tour boat. Create lifelong memories when you feed the giraffes during this incredibly unique wildlife experience in Pennsylvania.
Elmwood Park Zoo offers visitors an incredibly unique opportunity to feed some of its beloved residents. Of course, the most popular of them just might be the giraffes.
Three giraffes - Dhoruba, Gerald, and Mokolo - call Elmwood Park Zoo home. The three males arrived at the zoo in 2016 and have since delighted visitors by eagerly accepting their food.
Pop on over to the observation deck overlooking the bison to meet and to feed Dakota, Wendy, and Francis. The attraction costs $3 for zoo members and $4 for non-members.
Visit the trio of ladies daily, weather-permitting, from 10:30 a.m. to 11 a.m. and from 3 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.

Then, after feeding the bison, head over to the Birds of Paradise exhibit. Hang out with the "canary-winged parakeets" and the sun conures. Entering is free. But, if you want to feed the birds, food costs $2 for members and $3 for non-members.
Of course, a visit to the zoo wouldn't be the same without stopping by to hang out with the sheep and the goats. Barn food costs one dollar for all visitors.
