Our octopus, Hank, reached out of his tank, swiped one of his tentacles across to my ear, then handed me a quarter. He never broke eye contact.

The cow we use for our milking demonstrations has kind of a weird udder. First few rows might get wet. (Ponchos available in The Ramshackle Zoo Gift Shop for a nominal fee)

Our snapping turtle, Eric, fancies himself a bit of a magician. Try it out! Put your finger in his exhibit and watch it disappear! 👉🐢 ✨🪄✨ 🤜🐢~ ᵗᵃ⁻ᵈᵃᵎ

Rumors that our elephants are all animatronic are simply untrue. Elephants in the wild are known to travel on tracks and make loud whirring noises. Maybe pick up a National Geographic every now and then.

To whoever threw the vape pen into the chimp exhibit, thank you - it may have shaved a little time off his life, but he looks totally rad now.

It's gonna be a crazy day when our guests figure out all our electric fences are powered by 9-volt batteries we bought from Radio Shack back in 2009.

Starting to doubt our staff veterinarian's credentials. Do community colleges offer doctorates?

The Large Lizard exhibit in our herpetarium has pretty robust security with several surveillance cameras and guard on duty watching the video footage 24/7. A Monitor Monitor Monitor Monitor, if you will.

The fencing around The Ramshackle Zoo Alligator Atoll are there for 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 protection. We don't want to have to say "see ya later" as you leave in an ambulance.

We do not have a moo deng, but we do have a number of super-cute animals that will playfully bite you on the leg for a small fee. (Ask any Ramshackle Zoo staff member for pricing)

Feel free to feed our ducks whatever you have on hand. We aren't all high and mighty like some of those "accredited" facilities and you wouldn't believe how much actual duck food costs.

Some ne'er-do-wells fed our anteater a bee and the poor fella's snoot swelled up like a balloon.

Ramshackle Zoo Fun Fact: Sloths only poop once a week. We can always tell when it's our sloth's time to go because he tucks the newspaper under his arm before slowly making his way down from his tree.
