Item Description
Located in the city of Chippewa Falls, WI, the Irvine Park Zoo is a 318-acre public park that is home to tigers, bobcats, cougars, black bears, deer, bison, and other wildlife.
Irvine Park was established in 1906, and provides the citizens and visitors of the Chippewa Valley with quality opportunities for recreation and education. This free park offers a unique blend of activities and encounters with the natural world. We believe these encounters contribute to the wellbeing and enrich the lives of thousands from all economic levels.
The bear exhibit was built in 1909 and the cat exhibit in 1971. Construction of the 5,200 square foot bear exhibit was completed in Spring 2005 and the cougar exhibit in 2008, bobcats in 2009.
