TLDR: Ride the gondala at sunset! See outdoor things before noon.

TIPS:
- Ride gondala at sunset. You won't see much of the zoo on it. It's more for the sunset view.
- View all outdoor animals before noon. Anytime after that, they will be hiding or sleeping. Things like reptiles can be viewed last because they are in a glass enclosure and have nowhere really to hide.
- The smartphone App map is very helpful.

You will be here the entire day. Plan for it. Wear good walking shoes because there is a lot of ground to cover!

Super cool place to be! I love the walk through bird exhibits--you can get pretty darn close to take awesome photos!

This is a very large zoo but I do wish some of the enclosures were larger, especially for the bigger mammals.

The most interesting thing we saw is the Labrador Retriever INSIDE the cheetah enclosure--apparently they bond them with dogs! Super interesting!

Fellow penny collectors! There are 14 different souvenir penny machines scattered through the zoo each with 4 different designs! You have been warned! I walked out with at least 15 souvenir pennies...

Don't worry, gift shops are scattered every where in the zoo. Plenty of wallet draining opportunities!
