  • Cute zoo! We enjoyed it and its neat layout on a hill. They offer wagon you can pull your child in for a fee, my daughter loved it!
  • Small but interesting zoo with several really exciting exhibits. The Mexican Grey Wolves were a big highlight for us, as they are nearly extinct. Their pack is about 1% of the entire species population. Exhibits were clean and looked spacious enough. Several exhibits are on a steep slope and might be difficult to walk to for some guests. I would have loved to see a bit more room for a few of the animals, especially the sea lions. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. It took us about 2 hours to see every animal - though we spent several minutes at each exhibit. Bring a handful of quarters if you want to feed the alpaca! There's a small (bubble gum machine style) dispenser of food.
