I haven’t been back here since I was a kid and it is a completely different zoo! The animal exhibits were amazing and nothing like I remember. The animal habitats were all huge and provided excellent condition for the animals and viewing for the public. This is definitely a great place to bring small kids and is an excellent family excursion. Well worth the trip for any locals as well as tourists to the area.
Beautiful zoo in a beautiful location! The animal enclosures are fantastic, they give the animal residents much more space than your traditional zoo, and the mountain environment definitely gives the animals a much more authentic environment to live in.
My personal favorite in the Wallaby enclosure. They are partially tame from so much interaction with zoo keepers and so the wallaby enclosure is an open area where guests may walk or pull up a bench among the wallabies. No fences or glass needed.
I love this place! They are so low key and I love that even though it is a zoo, they put signs as to how they are helping that particular animal and usually why it is there if it is injured and unable to return to the wild or something. Also you get coins to donate to a cause you love. The set up is great and who doesn't love feeding giraffes?! It's fantastic and cheap!
Incredible zoo. Giraffe feeding is a must. Bear exhibit requires elevator or stairs but worth it. Lots of uphill walking. Watch for cars driving through park up to the Will Rogers castle. Parking usually good unless holiday. Mountain lion exhibit really neat and super close view. Look into a membership it might save you money even if you go just twice a year.
Such a cool zoo! My family has been visiting here for years and we've always had an awesome experience. The zoo has really been renovating a lot recently, making it that much better (at the cost of higher entry fees, unfortunately). They're going to redo the penguin/hippo exhibit, which has been much needed. The restaurant is really good, too; they've never failed to serve awesome food at a reasonable price (pizza, wraps, burgers, other unique foods like stuffed peppers, etc.). It has gluten free buns if you're wondering. This zoo is awesome! Definitely check it out!
There are plenty of opportunities to learn about the various species living at the zoo, so it is a wonderful for kids and adults a like.
