Description
The Racine Zoo, a 501(c) nonprofit located in Racine, Wisconsin, was established in March 1923 by Jacob Stoffel, Jr. That winter, the Racine Zoological Society was formed to work with the park board and to increase interest in the Zoo.
The Zoo’s first animals were donated by Stoffel himself. After that, many organizations throughout Racine donated animals such as badgers, foxes, and mountain goats to add to the collection.
Currently, the Racine Zoo cares for approximately 75 different species and over 300 individual animals from Wisconsin and around the world.
