I remember visiting this zoo when I was a kid and had a great time. This zoo has really grown a lot with a bunch of new animals and exhibits. I have visited Disney s Animal Kingdom and the Houston Zoo feels like you are at Disney and this zoo beats the Disney Animal Kingdom by many miles and a whole lot less expensive. The African Forest is a definite must and there is plenty of shade and cool spots. The animals have more than plenty of room to roam, exercise, play, and sleep and they all have friends and mates and they look like they are very well cared for. They even have a splash park to cool off in and for kids to play in. This is definitely NOT a once you seen it you have seen it so it is definitely worth buying a membership because if you come again, you will see something totally different and they are building a the Texas Wetlands exhibits.
