drove over there thinking it would be a nice way to fill out the afternoon. Arrived at 3:30 to find out they close at 4:00! In a few weeks they go to summer hours and are open later - until 5:00! Really?? That's about the time the animals start to get up and move around because it's starting to cool... More

Nice selection of animals to view. It is pretty with the beautiful little river and water fall. Great photo ops! It is kept clean as well. However, it is over priced and small. More

Take a great hike through the outdoor exhibits to see polar bears, all kinds of deer, a snowy leopard, geese, lions, seals, cougars, grizzly bears, etc. There are also prairie dogs and farm animals and monkeys, etc. The animals look well cared for and the staff is great. More

Lake Superior Zoo is a small zoo and thus the numbers and types of animals are limited. However, the landscaping is very nice with a beautiful waterfalls at the back of the zoo. The admission is a little too pricey for this size of zoo though. More

We visit Duluth a few times a year and we visit the zoo with almost every trip. This last trip we got there in time to watch them feed the nocturnal animals. The zoo keeper was really good about answering the kids' questions and took his time with each animal explaining what they eat and why. More
