The Red River Zoo is a zoo in Fargo, North Dakota. The zoo's first 8 acres (3.2 ha) opened in the spring of 1999. It gained accreditation from the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) in 2006.

The collection plan of the Red River Zoo primarily focuses on species from around the world with climates similar to North Dakota’s. Primary areas represented are North America, Northern Asia and Northern Europe. The Zoo also features a modern Children’s Zoo Farm which focuses on heritage breeds and teaching children where their food comes from and why biodiversity is important.

The Zoo is an accredited member of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) and a premier attraction for the city of Fargo and surrounding area.

The Red River Zoo has experienced steady, continuous growth and is now 22 developed acres and featuring a collection of approximately 89 species from around the world. Focusing almost exclusively on cold climate species, the Red River Zoo has a unique collection and has had impressive success in breeding some of the worlds rare and endangered species, including Chinese Red Pandas, Pallas’ Cats and Sichuan Takin. In 2013, the Red River Zoo received an Outstanding Achievement award in the Edward H. Bean Award from the Association of Zoos and Aquariums for our conservation work with Chinese Red Pandas.

The Zoo features a series of outdoor exhibits with indoor viewing areas located throughout the zoo. Recent expansions include a White Naped Crane and Pallas’ Cat exhibit renovations in 2012, a state-of-the-art North American River Otter exhibit which opened in 2013, a new Veterinary Center with a public viewing component which opened in 2015, and our new Children’s Zoo Farm and Nature’s Playland which opened in 2016.
