in Budgie Buddies. Journey into Wolf Woods and hear

endangered Mexican gray

wolves howling in their

award-winning mountain-

ones to a pony ride or a

whirl on a historic carou-

Cheyenne Mountain Zoo was founded in 1926 by philanthropist Spencer Penrose to house his growing collection of exotic animals. In 1938, after substantial development, Mr. Penrose deeded the Zoo as a non-profit public trust to the people of Colorado Springs. The Zoo is one of a handful of accredited zoos in the nation that operates without local tax support. We depend on admissions, membership dues, donations and grants for funding. Your support is critical to our future.
