The Bronx Zoo has hundreds of animals to see from bats to snakes to gorillas and tigers and more many in a 'natural' environment. Everything tends to be wide apart so be prepared to walk alot and definitely bring the stroller (though you will have to park it outside some of the exhibits so don't leave anything valuable behind!) The Children's zoo is great and has many interactive exhibits like walking in and out of a rope spider web and a petting zoo with a warthog. Do NOT go on family days when admission is free if you don't like lots of crowds. Do bring snacks/food and drinks along as prices in the zoo are expensive. Some of the rides like the tram can get costly when added to admission price but it is a nice break from walking around - get a combo ticket if you think you will do all the exhibits.
