Jacob's Review:  It is not really a real zoo, I call it a barn zoo.. They have Tigers, Lions, you can ride a train that goes around the whole zoo. There is a snake room and birds you can pet. There was a bear - but it was sleeping. They also had those pink birds, standing on their leg and some giant turtles.

Dad's Notes:  Jacob said it all - A Zoo with a rustic Barnyard feel. There is a shiny red train you can take for an enjoyable ride - I think about $2, some animals (Zebra's) you can only see well from the train. There is a petting zoo/animal feeding area - cups of food around $2. Around 8 kinds of monkeys (34 in all), a pony barn, cougars, tiger, lions, leopards, bobcats and lynx. (OK - So I am partial to the big cats)!
     No concession stand - just water, but there are picnic areas - so bring a basket!
