Very fun zoo! Great for young kids. Not too big. My son had a fun time seeing all the animals they had. He loved the petting zoo, bring some quarters if you want to feed the animals in the petting area. He was even able to pet a snake, and see a parrot up close as some of the workers brought them out. Friendly staff and just over all a clean beautiful zoo.
