Inspiration and Mission

The inspiration for Paris Deer Park came from a young Steve visiting deer parks and other zoological parks. It is our hope to bring you the nostalgia and wonder of a hopeful child, while culminating an educational and fun experience.

Paris Deer Park provides guests with an intimate and educational guided tour of both domestic and wild species. Our hope is to inspire each visitor to conserve native and nonnative wildlife and their habitats.

FAQs

  • Yes. All visits require a one time membership that must be reserved in advanced for a specified date and time. No walk-ins. Hours are by reservation only.

  • For our special events such as Cocoa with Santa, expect to spend between 30-45 minutes at the park. Our parking spaces are currently limited to 45 minutes due to space and we asks that guests be respectful of that time restriction.

  • No pets of any nature are allowed on any of the grounds.

  • No. This is an open air walking tour, over grassy areas and natural terrain, which are not conducive to strollers.

  • No outside feed is permitted. Federal law, and park rules mandate that feeding opportunities are solely monitored by the park and park staff. This maintains that our animals are fed the right diet and that it was stored properly. This also ensures that our animal collection is not overfed or injesting potentially harmful feedstuffs or objects.

  • Many animals carry zoonotic diseases that can be harmful to our collection. We ask that you do not visit another facility within 3 days of your scheduled visit in order to help prevent exposure to our animal collection.
