The first zoo in South Bend was located in Leeper Park from 1902 to 1914. The current zoo in Potawatomi Park was founded in 1921 when Albert R. Erskine, the president of Studebaker Corporation, donated a single deer to start the zoo. The Potawatomi Zoo is the second oldest zoo in Indiana. It has more than 400 animals on its 93,000 m2. The zoo is now operated by the Potawatomi Zoological Society. Along with the zoo, the South Bend Parks and Recreation Department operates over 50 parks, golf courses, and recreation areas throughout the city. Notable parks include Rum Village Park, with a disc golf course, mountain bike trails, hiking trails, and a nature center, and Potawatomi Park, with the region's largest public playground and a performance arts pavilion and outdoor viewing area.
