About ME's Zoo
ME's Zoo Inc. opened to the public in May of 1988 with about 45 animals and a sincere desire to become a success in this rural community. In the beginning, owners Max and Eileen Oren strived to maintain the 55-acre zoo as a wholesome place to bring the family for a day of fun. Each year many healthy exotic animals were added to a beautiful country setting along with picnic areas and playground equipment.
ME's doesn't try to compete with the larger zoos, but it does have a special appeal of its own. The 'atmosphere' is that of a rolling estate, friendly staff and extremely friendly animals. Almost all of the animals are hand raised and eagerly respond to the staff and visitors. People leave with a feeling that they really got to know some of the animals. Later, they return bringing their friends!
In the spring the zoo is filled to capacity with school children on field trips. The attempt is made to provide a time of learning and fun for all. Teachers appreciate the 'personal touch' not found in the larger zoos. Special petting time, question & answer sessions, animal shows and plenty of convenient free parking makes the day pleasant for everyone.
