Really nice zoo. So much bigger than I expected. The staff was friendly, the facilities were nice and the animals seemed well cared for. The bathrooms were immaculately clean!
Best thing was that the plants you see driving up the road to the park , are named for you when you pay to enter park . 4 caged birds , a couple of caged large cats that can barely move .. probably why the Bison were removed . All Sad & disappointing.
