Wild Florida is a small un-accredited zoo in central Florida, south of Orlando. The park is quite nice for what it is, small, but on par with most larger zoos in regard to exhibit design and park amenities.

Wild Florida is planning on opening a huge expansion next summer:

Wild Florida plans drive-through safari with giraffes, wild boar, other exotic animals

"The $2.5 million expansion at Wild Florida in Kenansville should help grow nature-based attractions in Central Florida, which already includes dozens of parks and attractions."

"For Wild Florida, which will add 75 acres to its 13-acre park for the new feature, it’s an opportunity to offer something different and rare in Central Florida: a place to see animals from your own car."

The article says "Along with giraffes and wild boars, the new area will include white-tailed deer, zebras and watusi. A large man-made pond will have alligators, as well."
 
Wild Florida is opening a drive through safari park on December 21st 2019. They have added giraffes, more zebra, wildebeest, and other animals to be announced.
 
Also, it seems the new area has:
American Bison
Giraffe
Wildebeest
Eland
Zebra
Waterbuck
Watusi
Mouflon Sheep
American Elk
Camel
Sika Deer
Brahma Cattle
Scimitar Oryx
Water Buffalo

Probably more, but that is what I could see on their Facebook posts.

Also, in July they added orinoco crocodiles on loan (permanent?) from DWA.
 
Yesterday, April 23rd a male nilgai calf was born. He was named Nelson. They have collected 27 nile crocodiles eggs. On the week of March 24th, Twin Jacob's sheep were born.
