Location

\n\n\n\n

Located in an industrial area of Tucson, Arizona, in the United States, the Tucson Petting Zoo and Funny Foot Farm doesn’t look like much from the outside, but don’t let that scare you off going inside.

Animals

\n\n\n\n


The Tucson Petting Zoo and Funny Foot Farm is home to a variety of animals that you won’t find in normal petting zoos, ranging from exotic animals to goats, sheep, donkeys, chickens, rabbits, and more.

\n\n\n\n

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about each animal living there, so feel free to ask them any questions. Kids can feed and pet animals like the Patagonian Mara and Kangaroos, which creates an up-close experience.

Several different ticket options are available and range from general admission animal petting to tours of the Capybara and Kangaroos.
At Funny Foot Farm, visitors can feed, touch, and learn about the animals living there. You can find everything from kangaroos, emus, patagonian maras, and chacoan mara to farm animals —all in one place.

\n\n\n\n

Kids can also explore the farm's large aviary of brightly colored birds like parakeets, cockatiels, and macaws. The aviary is also home to ducks, geese, chickens, peacocks, pheasants, and more!

The animal experts at Funny Foot Farm are passionate about helping families learn about animals in a fun and interactive way. The Kangaroo tour and Capybara interactive tour were our kid's favorites. They also offer special events, bookings where they come to you, and a birthday party package.
