Brights Zoo

Brights Zoo is a private, family-owned facility nestled in the hills of East Tennessee between Jonesborough and Greeneville. 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.

We are sincerely dedicated to the long-term conservation of nature’s animals through propagation and public education. Our long-term efforts to expand the population of rare and endangered species have resulted in the successful breeding of several different species of protected animals.
