What a horrible experience. I have been to many zoos and safaris and have come to expect that these very large, very wild animals should have a healthy, happy, and spacious area to roam. The enclosures at this zoo were far below subpar. It was inhumane. I only stayed for about twenty minutes...just enough time to see that half the animals were cowering in a corner and the other half were desperate to escape. There was no room for them to live and in any spot in the zoo you could hear all the noises of the city. I feel terrible having given any money to this establishment would have liked a refund had that been an option. This zoo would be greatly improved by reducing the number of animals to an amount that can be sustained on its land, or being relocated outside the city. Denver Zoo should be shut down for its shameful treatment of life.

If you're a Colorado resident, or have the time...go to the Wild Animal Sanctuary in Keenesburg. Same price, and a far better experience. You'll also know that your money is going towards helping the animals.
