Wonderful natural exhibits with lots of mature plantings. Must be a very progressive zoo - their natural exhibits look like the new style with great spaces for the animals, but they've actually been around for many years! Could use more restrooms - they were few and far between. Hearing stories from the docents about the Orangutans was a highlight for me - look for the female who loves to sweep! The keepers give her a brush and dustpan and she'll meticulously sweep and keep her area tidy. The young male with her likes to sometimes steal her brushes though. I also loved seeing them give the Orangutans paint and paper to make their own art with, lots of mental and physical activity for them.
