Our Animals

While visiting Bayou Wildlife Zoo in Alvin, Texas, you will meet a large variety of exotic animals in an up-close environment. Our zoo is home to many farm/zoo/wild animals, reptiles, and birds from around the world. Bayou Wildlife Zoo is also home to many endangered and threatened species including:
 

Gaur Cattle (vulnerable) Barasingha Deer (vulnerable)

Ring-Tailed Lemurs (endangered) Pere David's Deer (extinct in the wild)

Scimitar-Horned Oryx (extinct in the wild)

Addie Lou’s Petting Zoo (see COVID-19 updates)

Our petting zoo is home to all types of animals including Potbelly Pigs, Pygmy Goats, and miniature horses. Often, you will see new babies in our barnyard as new additions pop up all the time at our farm and zoo! In addition to our farm animals, you will find many interesting and different animals like Muntjac Deer, the smallest deer species which originate from China. In Addie Lou’s barnyard, we have a Wallaby (a cousin to the Kangaroo) and Kinkajou (a tropical rainforest mammal with relations to the raccoon). Your kids are sure to love interacting so closely with these adorable creatures.
