Exciting New Zoo Set to Open in Conway Area Featuring Exotic Animals

On April 24, 2025, excitement buzzed around Wild Woods Farms, a 40-acre location transforming into a new zoo near Conway. With plans to officially open in May, this newly established zoo promises to be a captivating destination for animal lovers and families alike.

Visitors will soon have the opportunity to meet a diverse array of animals, including playful capybaras, majestic camels, and lively monkeys, all housed in thoughtfully designed enclosures. During a recent preview, guests were treated to adorable moments, like capybaras swimming in their enclosure and an olive baboon grooming its caretaker, Todd Kramer. "These interactions create bonds and offer a unique experience for our visitors," said Tina Kramer, who co-owns the farm with her husband.
