Smoky Mountain Deer Farm and Exotic Petting Zoo

478 Happy Hollow Lane, Sevierville, 37876, TN

This 140-acre petting zoo lets you pet and feed many of its critters, which include deer, goats, camels, sheep, zebras, reindeer, pot-bellied pigs and guanacos (which look similar to llamas). Be on the lookout for the zonkies (half donkeys, half zebras), as well. The Australian section includes kangaroos, wallabies and emus (although they’re on a strict diet, so you can’t feed members of the down-under delegation). Kids weighing less than 100 pounds can also get pony rides for an additional fee, and the adjacent Deer Farm Riding Stable offers horseback riding for all ages.
