$11 for parking. $36 for admission for 2 adults. $19 for horrible 7/11 style old hot dog and soggy bun and 9ne turkey sandwich that makes a public school cafeteria seem like a 4 star restaurant. Takes less than 1 hour to walk and view each exhibit. Most animals were missing or asleep at 1:30pm on a sunday. Unattended kids everywhere. If all the money we are charged goes directly to the animal's wellbeing then that's fine but why are the food places staffed with 5 to 7 people to produce horrible quality food that costs 80% more than it should? Are these volunteers or are these kids getting paid minimum wage? The animals seemed to be ok and healthy so that's good... however it's seems this zoo is overly staffed. This place is probably ideal for 3 to 8 year olds... but it's kind of mediocre as far as zoos go.
