Despite the relative cold, most of the animals were out and active. Being by ourselves, and taking our time, reading a lot of the informational signs and watching the animals that held our interest, it only took us hour and a half to walk the whole zoo. Having the camel and donkey tucked away in the same space, was nice, too. I was impressed with the several acres of open space for the giraffes, ostriches, zebra and ibex(?). We came in the opposite was of the intended flow of it, so you walked up the ramp and *BAM* there it is: a WIDE open area of African animal goodness. The big highlight for me, was the Boardwalk. I enjoyed the Cheetah exhibit, as we were a scant 10' from the cats, which was closer than I've ever seen them. Not all the displays were 'natural habitat', but everything looked cleaned and well maintained. I liked the layout, and they had a fair amount of animals. Due to that, besides the zoo staff, we were the only ones there. We went on a Tuesday, and it was rather cool and cloudy. My first time here, and I and the family enjoyed it.

Be sure to have quarters on hand so little ones can feed the friendly goats. Pause to take in the view at the African Outpost overlooking the water hole. Experience a 'giraffe's eye-view' of the African Savannah exhibit from an elevated walkway, the exhibit is home to eight different species of animals. Be sure to plan your zoo arrival in time to experience the 10:30am daily public giraffe feeding. Resulting in a fascinating collection of camp tools used to capture animals and media memorabilia from the 1930, 1940, & 1950's.
