It's nice to have a small zoo in Oshkosh. The whole Menominee Park are is an asset to the city. They zoo is spending money to upgrade the facilities which is a welcome site as it was looking very dated. Some of the animals don't seem to be thriving but then others do. It's definitely worth a check out at least once.
It’s a small zoo, not too many animals, but still a very good place to spend time on a sunny nice weekend. Or even to take a walk on a quiet day. Its FREE. Also spend time on the beautiful Winnebago lakeside, which is a great place just next to the zoo. We enjoyed chatting with the zoo staff too, who were all nice and socializing with visitors. So many families and kids were present.
