Welcome to Zoològico Dr. Juan
A. Rivero, Mayaguez, Puerto Rico
Just a short drive from Cabo Rojo (about 20 minutes) you can get close and personal with the wild side of Puerto Rico and have a fantastic time with your family at the Mayaguez Zoo.
The zoo is managed by the Compañia of Parques Nacionales.
The zoo contains a nice selection of animals which are divided
into two groups which are the African Forest and the African Savannah.

The zoo was recently renovated and it is very well kept.
It is almost like being at a tropical garden or jungle.
One of my favorite features of the zoo is the bird sanctuary where you go into a open outside room with a netting ceiling where colorful tropical birds and parrots are free to fly and hang out with you.
Hours
The zoo is open Wednesday - Sunday from 8:30am -
4:00pm
Admission:
Please call for rates or go to the official
website
(another window will open)
How to get there
Take Route 108 past the University, then turn right at the sign for the zoo.
Following are some photos of the beautiful animals at the Mayaguez Zoo
Watch the pedestrians, you may see friendly iguanas walking by seeking for a
cool shaded spot at the zoo.
Enjoy your photo tour at the Zoo. (not al animals are shown here, just a couple
of friendly creatures at the zoo)

Enjoy the beautiful flora of flowering trees, ponds, and tropical foliage. Rest
from the sun under a cool shaded spot and enjoy the sights.

 



I hope you take some time away from the beautiful beaches in Cabo Rojo and that
you take the time to take your children, family and friends to enjoy this
wonderful wild attraction on the beautiful Porta del Sol.
Thanks for visiting!!
