Brights Zoo is a private, family-owned facility nestled in the hills of East Tennessee. Animals living here include some rare & endangered species such as addax, bongo and scimitar-horned oryx, and bactrian camels. The center also contains more common but exotic creatures like red kangaroos, spider monkeys, pandas and zebras.
Beginning in 2007, we opened the gates for school tours of our facility. These tours are designed to educate children of any grade level about pivotal issues concerning the support and welfare of animals everywhere.
1. Brights Zoo offers self-guided and guided tours. Topics covered include learning to recognize animals at each exhibit, adaptations for survival and general information along with interesting facts about each species. Animal photography is encouraged.
2. Animal care focuses on the everyday activities associated with caring for animals and concentrates on feeding habits and veterinary care. Feeding habits cover the diet and nutrition for the animals both in captivity and in their natural habitat. Veterinary care features common animal pests and parasites, and preventative measures and treatments for controlling them.
3. Conservation covers man’s impact on his environment and demonstrates the need for the protection of natural habitats required for the survival of wild animals.

I was in tennessee for thanksgiving and we went here.The giraffe's name is Kipekee which means unique in Swahili and she is absolutely beautiful!!

We raise goats here in Indiana and those little guys look healthy and well cared for. We are going to sneak over to this zoo while visiting friends in Rodgersville next week. ❤

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

It seemed pretty clean & well kept from what we could see. They normally have about 400 people attend. I guess they had close to 3k on Saturday!

[@janasheets890]

@@AdventureIsOutThere Oh my word! I bet they were overwhelmed and happy! Lol

[@wendylogan5878]

That is so cool..a spotless giraffe. My daughter used to live near that zoo but moved into my mom's house here in NC. Looked like you guys had a fun day at the zoo.thanks for taking us along

We live 10 minutes from the zoo. Cool to see you in our part of Tennessee. (Pal's has great fries!)

They do!

[@AngelGranni]

I was so excited to see y'all traveled to see the the unique spotless giraffe. I just saw it on the news Monday morning. I hadn't realized just how close it is. We love Yoders so hopefully we can make a trip for both soon. I so appreciate how informative your videos always are.

I guessed it! I told Joy I bet they're going to Pal's! I had driven by it in my truck years ago and loved the building. We had to try it on our first trip to Pigeon Forge. Good stuff!

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

Not as good as they cake you gave us, but it was good! Thanks again, safe travels Marvin!

[@darlenequinn193]

I very much enjoyed your video. So good to see both giraffe calves and their moms. Enjoyed your humor too. Looks like a lot of walking at that zoo.

[@summerblonde]

Your voice sounds just like Mister Rogers!!!! Also, I would’ve picked Shakiri or Jemella, however and earlier I saw that Kipekee was chosen.

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

We get that a lot Summer Blonde!

[@thecoolestdad]

I pick Kipikee for the name. I have never seen a spotless giraffe. Very rare and very cool. Pal looked good.

They announced yesterday that is the winning name!

Thank you for sharing the video on new baby giraffe. I have always wanted to go see the giraffes at Bright Zoo. Next time you check out Troyer’s. You should try Auntie Ruth donuts and pretzels. We have drove out there for them. Pals was a great choice too. The cheddar rounds are great at breakfast. 🦒🌭

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

I looked at going to Troyer’s the day before, but opted to go with Pal's as I knew that would be a hit with the kids.

[@eddieworsham2533]

Love Y'all ❤️ Amazing spotless giraffe girl never seen before 😊

Thanks Eddie! We hope this video helps others virtually see the spotless giraffe at the Brights Zoo in Tennessee!

[@laurindawaddle3695]

I am not sure if you noticed but you drove right past Troyer's which is also an another awesome Amish store. It is on the same highway as the zoo.

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

I did look at that one before we left. I figured the kids would be happy to get Pal’s. We will have to check it out next time we are in the area…thanks!

[@laurindawaddle3695]

@@AdventureIsOutThere yes Pal's is awesome 😎

I came here to comment the same thing 😂. Troyers is a must whenever you’re in Limestone!

This is a really great little zoo! I live in nearby Jonesborough and my family and I love to visit Brights. Next time y’all are in the area make sure you stop by Troyers!

We almost stopped there on our way home to PA yesterday, but we opted for Incredible Tiny Homes instead.

What is the Incredible Tiny Homes like?

Visiting the Smokies from Indiana in two weeks and plan on stopping at the zoo on the way down.

[@ShesHereForTheMusic]

I’ve heard of it but haven’t visited yet. It looks pretty quiet from your video. What time of the day and what day did you go on? I like to avoid crowds if all possible. Thankyou for posting this video , I enjoyed it.

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

We went right when they open at 9 AM. Our pleasure! We hope this video helps others virtually see the spotless giraffe at the Brights Zoo in Tennessee!

Kipekee is a great name.

[@JayDean-bd1dd]

Such a cool zoo for the area but some lady kicked us out because we couldn't bring food in for my 12 month old so we couldn't stay long then she had the owner threaten to ban us super weird people

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

They have particular rules. This was the first zoo we have been to that did not allow a “selfie stick” for filming. We did try to cover the no outside food rule in the beginning of the video.

[@mitsuri3096]

Sa slooking for a video of this

[@fengxianli1511]

Can you make a video at the creation museum and ark encounter it is the best

[@janasheets890]

I have ALWAYS wanted to go there and it's close to our home too. Maybe this fall!

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

It’s on our to-do list!

[@WesleyKisor1164]

I would really love to visit this zoo and see all the animals. I like zoos and other than Knoxville Zoo being close to the Pigeon Forge/Sevierville/Gatlinburg area this one sounds like it's close as well. Maybe when I make a visit to the Smoky Mountains after moving to Nashville I'll have to visit this zoo. The spotless giraffe 🦒 is really unique and cute. I think it's name should be Shakiri.

[@kevinlangley3782]

You know inflation is getting bad when places can't even afford spots for their Giraffes ☺

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

👍

[@Moose-man]

Went to a place very much like this in St. Louis with my son & 10 year old grandson…..it was a school field trip & for some reason the kids were possessed with seeing a capibara….that giraffe is extraordinary….animals can be fascinating☺️….giraffes are just majestic to me!!

[@Moose-man]

And a happy Capi Brie says, lol…..I think he was smiling😬

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

They are so majestic! One of God's many magnificent creations! They were napping so she said they were nappy capi's. It was a great day! They ended up getting more people at the zoo than they ever had on Saturday!

[@Moose-man]

Oh, a happy, nappy capi☺️….I like a good nappy myself😴….& they got to feed the giraffes….the smile on Hannah’s face was priceless🙏🏻

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

@@Moose-man me too! Love they will have these videos they can go back and watch when they are older as memories!

[@KINDERKRAFTS]

Hi again Ryan and Brie... What a fun tour of the zoo The highlight was of course the spotless giraffe. What a gorgeous giraffe, and so special Thank you so much for showing it a few times. I just hope they don't separate it from it's mama, and sell it to another zoo Hannah and Michah always add so much fun to your vids Thank you again so much Have a fun evening Surie

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

Glad you could virtually join us Surie!

[@lennonthelemon9895]

Ok so you should name the baby giraffe spots

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

🦒👍

[@joshdaynemel]

Please tell me they are not kept in those gravel pens.......

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

It sounds as though giraffe are both highly susceptible to intestinal parasites and are prone to hoof conditions when kept on grassy, soft substrate. Zoos do this to control their diet.

[@pawprintz7166]

Lucky the Mother didn't disown it.

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

👍

[@WanderingWizzard]

You've given us yet another place to visit when in Gatlinburg next. We'll need 3 months to do all the new stuff. But we only have 1 week. 😮

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

LOL!

[@SolitarySister]

This looks more like a prison for the poor animals. No grass, just concrete and stones, they only see nature through bars.

[@AdventureIsOutThere]

[@teresapinnell-wl8el]

I hope they name her shakira
