This is kind of a drive off the beaten path but definetely worth making a day trip for. Its got tons of animals and a tram ride to go into the larger area where you can see the animals in their habitat rather than in a small fenced in area like so many zoos. If you are lucky they will be right on the side of the tram and if it were allowed you could reach out and touch them. If you plan your trip right you can get to see a plethora of baby animals and their moms, unfortunately they often don't stand still long enough for pictures. Employees are very knowledgeable and provide you with tons of information about the animals they house. The tram ride takes about an hour, but there is also exhibits that you can walk to on foot to fill your time before and after the tram ride.
Pros: baby animals, bus ride
