Editorial Review for San Antonio Zoo – by Kimberly Tebrugge

Overview
When you enter the zoo you'll receive a map to the habitats of more than 3,500 amazing animals. When your legs need a rest, park-like shaded areas are perfect for picnics. Youngsters could spend hours in the children's zoo, petting and feeding llamas, sheep and goats or just romping around the playground.

The Experience
Go on safari along winding paths to see the wild animals of Africa, including lions, giraffes, zebras, elephants and even a family of rhinos. Experience where they eat, sleep and play in realistic and almost natural habitats. Enter the aquarium and imagine yourself underwater swimming with stingrays or playing with seals. Plus, visit the bears, big cats and reptiles from just a few, safe yards away. A big winner with the kids is Lori Landing, an interactive exhibit in which visitors get to feed nectar to the very friendly jewel-colored birds.

LANDSCAPING IS BEAUTIFUL, SMALL ZOO, UNDER CONTRUCTION, ANIMALS LOOKED SICK, ESPECIALLY THE MOUNTAIN GOAT AND THE ELEPHANT.

Pros: LANDSCAPING

Cons: ANIMALS WERE SICK LOOKING

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

be sure to include this zoo. Despite its relatively small size, we were unable to see it all in 4-hours. The facility was clean, the staff cheerful, the animals interactive.
