Oxbow Park and Zollman Zoo

Oxbow Park and Zollman Zoo are a campground and zoo located in Olmsted County, Minnesota, United States, north of the city of Byron, and about 4.5 miles (7.2 km) west of Rochester. It houses over 30 species of animals, most of which have injuries that would prevent them from surviving in the wild. All of the animals are native to Minnesota. The zoo is named after Dr. Paul E. Zollman. The most popular animals include a wolf, bald eagle, white-tailed deer, coyotes, bobcat, river otters, bison and cougar. Oxbow Park is open most of the year, as is Zollman Zoo, with a majority of the animals being visible year round.
