I went on Friday with some family members to take DD, who is 3. We rode from Plano to the Zoo on the Dart Rail. I was carrying the entire time, IWB in the center of my back. Nobody knew I had it on. I didn't see ANY signs at the Zoo about not being able to carry and I looked. I had to go to the member services counter at the merry go round to get tickets for that and walked through the gates out front and show them our tickets we had already purchased. NO SIGN!!! It wouldn't have mattered to me. From the previous posts, they are trying to play it off as an amusement park or education? NOT!!! As long as I don't see a proper sign, I'm carrying.

Too many animals escape from the Dallas Zoo for me not to carry there. I haven't been there yet, but if and when I do I will be carrying. I have carried at the FW Zoo.

I'm sure the Zoo can claim to be a government entity or a private organization depending on which suits them best.

Kinda like Congress and the Senate or the FBI and the ATF. Just different departments.
