Fun animal encounters. Tyler was a great host. They seem to care about all the animal's well being. Super friendly and sweet front of house staff. Cute gift shop.

A truly incredible experience. Lots of unique animals you can really get up close with, staff that was very nice and informative, and all for $20?! If you aren't spending the extra $5 to feed the animals you're doing it all wrong. Shout out to lorelai (we think) in the petting zoo! You were awesome!
