Perfect zoo for families.

Perfect zoo for families.

Although the amazing and monstrous Bronx Zoo is not far away it s just too much of a production.

Enter Turtle Back Zoo. This great zoo is actually very compact but has lots to see. The design of the habitats allow for close viewing of animals. There are plenty of picnic areas to take a break and sit down for a snack. The park is very stroller and wheel chair friendly.

The new Africa exhibit is stunning and beautifully shows off the lions, hyenas, and the elegant giraffes. Furthermore the new flamingos are very serene to observe.

Well worth a visit.
