"If I were an animal, this is where I'd want to live" say those impressed by the "top-notch", "realistic habitats" at this "gem of a zoo" about a mile from Downtown; the "nicely laid-out" property is expansive, and thus "never feels crowded" – just "bring your walking shoes" to track down all the sights, including the enclosure "where butterflies flit around" or "Hansa the elephant, who's a delight to watch"; in addition, there are events like "decently priced concerts in summer."
