Our Zoo and Aquarium Expert Says:
Creepy crawler heaven. The kids will love (or be creeped out) when they see dung beetles push piles of poop and skin beetles pick the flesh off bones. The zoo features almost 950 mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates. There's even show-and-tell on weekends - with live tarantulas and millipedes!
Especially for kids: Stroller rentals available.
Extras: Shows, Educational Presentations.
Open 10 am to 5 pm. $$ (Moderately Priced)
Statistics: Approximately 250 species of animals.
