I loved being able to buy food and feed the animals. I love that they are very protective of their animals and treat them like family. Watching the bears eat entire watermelons was a lot of fun. Watching tigers swim in their own pond was fascinating.

Great zoo. Cattie and Bud are superb. Great with children. Not too many zoos where you get to pet a baby wolf, or a kangaroo, or sloth. Help feed the bears. Highly recommend.
