Jungle Habitat, photos and information

Jungle Habitat, located in West Milford, New Jersey, was a Warner Brothers-owned theme park that opened in the summer of 1972, and closed in October 1976. By November 1972, the park had 500,000 paid visitors.

The park contained well over 1,500 animals. Among other things, the park featured a drive-through safari, in which wild animals were permitted to walk right up to vehicles passing through. Riders could see a variety of peacocks, baboons, camels, elephants, llamas, giraffes, and Siberian tigers. People could either drive their own cars through the safari or ride a bus through. Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson Township, New Jersey at the time had and still has a similar kind of drive through safari.
