This is a nice little zoo! I think that Essex County New Jersey and PANYNJ do a great job maintaning this place. They always have concerts there and the zoo is a part of the South Mountain reservation where they also have a huge playground for the kids. The mini-train is a great experience and the animals are very cute and friendly. There is also a peacock that walks around the premesis and pecks at everyone's feet. That's another cool feature. The only negative is that the zoo is a little on the crowded side, but what would you expect for the NYC area? My little cousin (and me) love this zoo!
