Review of World Wildlife Zoo

We LOVE this zoo! This is our 3rd year being membe...

We LOVE this zoo! This is our 3rd year being members and we're so happy to be back after the long closure for covid-19. Compared to the other zoo in town, I'd pick this one any day. The zoo is HUGE, so there's so much to see, it's hard to see everything in one day, which is nice being members, because we can go to one or two sections each time and not feel like we're seeing the same things every single time. We love how close all the animals are, so you can actually see and interact with them and as members, we get to see them grow and change over time, which is so cool. There's plenty of shade and places to sit and watch the animals. Fun shows and rides and A/C in the aquarium buildings to escape the heat during the hotter months!
The ONE thing I wish is that the employees constantly driving around would be a little friendlier....they NEVER wave or even smile at anyone...although all the people doing the shows and managing the rides have been great.
My kids are 9, 5, and 2, so we plan on being members for a few years to come now and are hoping the prices don't go up TOO much every year, cause last year they went up quite a bit and it was a big jump for a family of 4-5.
Many of their animals are rescues and they have new babies to see every year!
We love that you can bring in snacks and drinks and don't have to worry about paying a crazy amount for junk food at the in zoo restaurants, although one of their restaurants actually has pretty decent mexican food! We frequently run into Dillon's in the middle of our trip for a snack (and a beer) and then finish walking around after a nice little break!
All in all, we'd pick this zoo a million times over the other one and recommend it to everyone!
