Small zoo. Good landscaping. Pleasant. Token purchase required for some activities. Wide paths, easy walking. $2 to ride the tram - best used to travel between exhibits as you can't see much from the tram. Friendly employees. Skip the wolf exhibit - mate died and he is not doing well - very sad.

A great place for the kids and grown-up to visit. The paths are steep in places but it is a good workout and there are places to rest. I started taking my granddaughter and was amazed at how much the zoo has improved since her dad was a kid. We've really enjoyed the trips there.

It's a great zoo for the metropolitan area it serves, but keep in mind, it's a small metropolitan area. That's why it's 4 star, size. They do a great job with what they have, it's always clean, and it has a defense variety of animals. The "Amazonia" building is their pride and joy, and it should be. Looking forward to the prairie dog exhibit!

Have loved this zoo all my life. Went there this time as part of the co-operative Museum Wander. An amazing three days of reciprocal visitation between most of the museums and the zoo here in town if you had a membership in any of them. What a great time. Hope they do this again!

It's not a huge zoo but it is very nice, clean, and well-maintained. It's also a botanical garden. There are play areas, activties, and shows for kids. We loved feeding the giraffes! A nice place to spend a day with the family.
