  Great little zoo. Our two little ones really love the animals and getting to feed a good number of them. The animal encounters are fun if you're into doing something different like that (the kangaroo was my favorite). They will be moving to a larger facility at the end of September and will reopen sometime in November (check website for more updated info). Worth the price of admission, can easily spend half a day there with the kids.
