The Memphis Zoo is a very beautiful zoo with amazing amount of quality exhibits. My family has a membership, and we enjoy visiting several times a year. The Zoo is continually adding new sections and improving the existing ones. Look for the Teton Trek to open in October of 2009.

I'm not getting all these 5 star reviews, have these people ever been to another zoo? We went here based on these rating and they are misleading! It's average at best, the Aquarium was sad and lacking, mostly tropical fish you could buy or see at your local pet store nothing really exotic or rare, dirty tanks and poor lighting... more
