The zoo was very clean and well-maintained. We didn't really smell the animals at all (until we got to the zebras lol). I felt like we were walking through the jungle, instead of seeing the animals in captivity, as is the case when I visit other zoos. There were all kinds of animals -- bears, zebras, giraffes, peacocks -- the... More

We came to the zoo expecting it to be tiny and were we ever surprised! We loved the zoo and would return again. What a wonderful place, and it runs on donations! More

Like: The fact that it is easily walkable in a day; that it's unique & they ask for a donation instead of charging a fee. Dislike: As with any zoo, it's mildly depressing that the animals are in fact, in a zoo. And, the ones you really want to see (snow leopards) were hiding that day. More

It's difficult to imagine this amazing facility is a part of a county park system. The exhibits and professional habitats, are all for the price of... More
