I know Nashville Zoo leads in breeding some rare small carnivores, not sure how many of them are on exhibit though. Smithsonian's National Zoo has a few small carnivorans in their Small Mammal House, such as black-footed ferret and sand cat. I'm sure there are other zoos big into small carnivorans I'm not thinking of right now, I'll let you know if I remember any.

Most aren't on exhibit. It's still a fantastic zoo, though.

Alright, gotcha. I will say if you get a choice, try to go mid spring-mid fall. It really isn't at its best in the winter. Its a good time to go to avoid crowds but I think its definitely meant to be seen with full greenery. It kind of feels like a ghost town in the winter, even on nice days.
