This is a great little zoo. I have been going there for five years and now that I have small children, the size of the zoo fits perfectly with their attention span. Do not expect a world-class experience, but if you have two hours and need something to do with the kids this is your place.

We loved this zoo, we are from RI and have a wonderful zoo here, and I think the WPB Zoo was just as nice. We had to wait a bit for food, as there was a long line for dining, but my children loved this zoo. I think I enjoyed it more than the San Diego Zoo, which we visited last year. Only because the SD zoo was sooo big. I was really impressed with this zoo, and would definately visit again.

Small but cozy zoo. Beautifully landscaped and very cool mayan section. It's shady, you dont have to walk so far in between the animals like Miami Metro Zoo. Yeah so they dont have elephants, but the otter tank was way cooler. We were there when they had the Winter in July festival, one weekend a year they have 40 tons of real snow for the kids to go crazy in. It was cool, my kids (grown up on a tropical island) never had touched or seen real snow.

I was able to spend about 3hrs here on a monday morning. What I noticed first was the lush greenery which covered many of the walkways. Many of the anmilas were behind plexi or fences, so clean pics were hard to get. What I assume was the newer section was awsome though. The backdrops looked on par with Disney, as I wandered through Aztec ruins. This section was a little more open and they had many animals I hadnt seen before. The tiger habitat was interesting because even though the tiger was behind a chainlink fence, the walkway was covered by fog machines which made the journey a little like indiana jones. The prarie dog habitat was also worth mentioning with many baby prarie dogs to watch play. It was also notable that the tigers were probably the largest beasts there.
