Claws 'N' Paws Wild Animal Park
Wild animal park
About
Claws 'N' Paws is an open-air animal park on shaded woodland trails. The park says it has over 120 rare and exotic species, including Jethro the giraffe and lory parrots.
You can feed the giraffe and the parrots at scheduled times, go into the petting zoo to feed deer, sheep and goats, and visit Turtle Town to touch large tortoises. There is also a Dino Outpost. The park is on Route 590, about 4 miles east of Hamlin.
When to go
The tickets page lists the season as May 1 to mid-October, seven days a week, 10am to 6pm, with last admission at 5pm.
In a warm fall the park has extended its season. A notice on its home page when we checked in November 2026 said the last day had moved to November 8, so check the site before a late visit.
Good to know
Feed costs extra: $5 for the giraffe and parrots, and $5 for Turtle Town.
The snack bar takes cash only, and you can bring your own picnic lunch.
Tickets are sold online or in person.
