It's a great zoo with a lot to see and do, and you can get a lot of good pictures of the animals and the crowds, if you're a photo hobbyist. It's a big park, and it'll take pretty much a whole day to see it all, but it's definitely worth it. There are animal exhibits from prairie and African plains animals to Arctic animals, and don't forget the butterfly house and reptile buildings! Visit the farm exhibit too, because these days even horses and cows are exotic for some kids I for one am glad that the Detroit Zoo seems to be back on, for the time being, as it would be a shame if one of the metrot-Detroit area's greatest attractions was gone for good. If you've been there once and want to go back for more, I'd suggest getting a membership, as it pretty much pays for itself within a couple of visits. It's fun for kids, families, even twentysomething couples with some free time! Don't let Detroit's animals down, visit soon!
