Great to see all the animals up close and not in cages. My favorite experience was feeding the cubs!

We went there a couple of weeks ago, and my husband was skeptical because it was extremely hot. We saw lots of animals and it was worth every penny we paid. Also I think they do a very good job of keeping them in a somewhat natural habitat. I hate zoos because of the cages and being crowded. There were areas with pools where the animals could go cool off, as well as trees for shade,and I saw several people checking on their drinking water in the smaller animal areas. It was around 97 when we were there.
