Description
Very impressive zoo filled with a huge collection of exotic and domestic animals. Perfect for a visit in any weather because in addition to all of the outdoor enclosures you will find indoor exhibits, a large aquarium, aviary, monkey habitat, and much more. There is a great playground near the chimpanzee enclosure where the kids can climb like monkeys.
Special to note is the daily Keeper's talk and seal feeding at 4pm. In the winter when it is below 10 deg C the penguins stroll through the park. You can watch Pelicans feed daily at 5:30 and see feedings in the Vivarium: Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays between 15:00 and 16:00.
