  • I can see so many animals from different parts of the world all in one day.
  • I never see the wolves in their exhibit.

“I keep going back to the zoo with the kids. They love it! Having only the Denver and KC zoos to compare it too, they still love this one close to home. We also visited the new penguin exhibit for the first time yesterday and it was great that the penguins were all just right there. Being so close to them so the kids could see them so well, especially for my 4 year old, was wonderful. We always enjoy the days we go to the zoo.”

  • Easy to see animals ~ Well maintained ~ Extensive children's zoo ~ Laid out for no backtracking.
  • Overpriced concessions.

“I love zoos. My husband and I visit zoos everywhere we go, so I wasn't sure what kind of experience I was going to have at this "little" zoo that was so close to home. As it turns out, this is a great zoo! The zoo is laid out perfectly, so that you can see all the exhibits without a lot of backtracking. In fact, we were only there from noon to closing and saw every single exhibit! The day we went was very hot, so they had some of the animals inside, but for each animal they had inside there was a place for us to go and look at it inside. We probably saw 98% of the animals on exhibit. Most of the animals you could see very closely, inside or out. This zoo also has an extensive kids petting area, with animals from Asia, America, and Africa on display up close and personal. There are also many exhibits where some animals roam free, which gives you a chance to get very close to them. There are lots of food machines throughout the place so you can feed some of the animals, and zoo keeper feeding times are on display so you can watch the feedings if you wish. The whole zoo is divided into exhibits from different geographic areas, and the areas are decorated in the style, with plants, buildings, music, and the like.. Everything was clean and well maintained. The only negative thing I have to say is that no one should ever have to pay $10 for 2 hot dogs and 2 waters. Bring your own snacks! I would recommend this zoo to anyone.”
