The large expanse of the San Diego Zoo is home to an increasing number of Earths menagerie of animals. Many rare ,magnificent and often ill adapted (to humanity) animals from all over the world are housed and bred here. Great effort has been made to make Their new homes here as close to their natural habitat as possible. The enclosures are very clean and beautiful.

To see all the exhibits in the zoo in a one day is a feat. By first taking the Bus tour then the SkyFari will allow you to get an overview of interesting areas and then decide to spend time on the most interesting regions. Recommendations for the Bus Tour :for clockwise tours take the seats facing inside to easily view the majority of the enclosures.

Picnic food items are allowed into the Park and can lesson the $ of being in a Tourist hungry zone.
