About

The Capital of Texas Zoo is one of Greater Austin's and Bastrop's most exciting animal adventures. Just 20 minutes east from downtown Austin, the Zoo is home to over 500 rare and beautiful wild animals. 

The Zoo's twin missions include Wildlife Education and Conservation of Endangered Species.  Small and intimate, the Capital of Texas Zoo is one of Austin and Bastrop area's most unique experiences!

The Capital of Texas Zoo is the largest and fastest growing zoo in Central Texas. We have over 400 family members who buy a yearly membership so they can visit us numerous times throughout the year.

Our zoo is small compared to places like San Antonio or Houston, but we are a  pretty, intimate little place with happy, healthy animals.  We have breeding programs for fourteen endangered species here, and this is our main reason for existing. Most people love us. Give us a chance, and I predict you will love us, too.
