Small but Enjoyable
Monday, April 17, 2006
Although small, the Palm Beach Zoo has a lot to offer. Begin your trek in Austral-Asia, where you'll see wallabies, kookaburras, kangaroos and a Bengal tiger. This is followed by the Florida exhibit, which houses animals native to Florida - flamingos, a Florida panther, roseate spoonbills, a bald eagle, scarlet ibis, otters, turtles, gators and coons. In the Tropics of the Americas you can see bush dogs, jaguars, frogs, bats, snakes, spiders, anteaters, emus, tapirs and fish. Throughout your journey are interesting architectural and landscape elements like a cypress boardwalk, saw mill and waterfalls which make things more adventuresome. There are also a carousel, gift shop and restaurant to enjoy.
