I'm from Cincinnati, so... You know. This is a good medium sized zoo. Most of their pens are pretty natural feeling and clean. Not bad, at all. It's very hilly, so bring you tennis shoes.

Probably one of the best Zoos I've been to. A healthy assortment of animals and creatures that are in an environment that doesn't convey that awkward sense of exploitation.
You can truly visit here for both entertainment and educational purposes. The creatures all seem in good spirits and well taken care of. The pricing is reasonable. You can go there alone or with many people, young or old. An overall impressive experience.
Great zoo; much better than others I've been to. Large enclosures, well-trained staff, and animals seem healthy and happy.
