- Overview
Topeka Zoological Park is a medium-sized zoo in Gage Park , just off I-70 in the north central portion of the city. Despite its small size, it has a number of fine exhibits, including one of the first indoor tropical rain forests in the United States. It is one of the most popular attractions in Topeka, with over 150,000 visitors a year, though attendance has been declining since the 1980s.The zoo lost its accreditation with the Association of Zoos and Aquariums in 2001, due to mismanagement, poor conditions for some of the animals being exhibited, and the deaths of several animals. In 2003, after a major overhaul of the zoo and the addition of several new exhibits, the Topeka Zoo regained its accreditation.* series of photos showing new exhibits being built[1]
