Meet the Animals
You can see elephants, tigers, giraffes, penguins, and many more animals from near and far. Each area is made to look like the animals' real homes in the wild.
Dolphins and Water
The zoo has a special dolphin habitat where you can watch these clever swimmers leap and play. There is also an aquarium full of colorful sea creatures.
Orangutan Center
A tall glass center lets orangutans climb high on cables above your head. Watching these gentle apes swing and play is a favorite for many visitors.
