Potawatomi Zoo

Since its humble start, the Potawatomi Zoo has become a premiere destination for fun and educational activity in the South Bend region. Accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums since 1987, the Potawatomi Zoo is home to more than 400 animals and exceeds the standards for zoos in animal care and quality of life, conservation, and education programs. The Potawatomi Zoo staff strives to provide guests with a unique and meaningful animal experience that is memorable, up close, and personal; protect and preserve the diversity of species on Earth; and be responsible and respectful of the animals, facilities, and resources entrusted to the Zoo.
