  • Little Zoo with a Big Heart
    By Lisa, 10/13/09
    Although it definitely isn't as big as some of the zoos I've visited in the Lower 48, I really feel like the Alaska Zoo has a great heart. It has the highest percentage of rescued orphaned and injured animals in the country, and every animal there is there because it can't survive on its own in the wild. The animals are all ...

  • Worth the time and money
    By Karyn, 08/14/09
    While not the largest or the best zoo I've ever seen, my kids loved it. It was a value at $36 for a family of four, and it was perfect for an afternoon. You can see everything in 2-3 hours.

  • Do you want to see a Polar Bear?
    By Louis Lupinacci, 08/04/08
    This is an outstanding zoo. I have been to many zoo's around the country and this one is really a very cool one. Its in a wooded area, has steams running though it, the animals due to the nice weather are ususally out walking around. It was clearly one of the High spots on my trip to AK. Its a don't miss.

  • Unique animals
    By Kathy, 08/12/07
    We really enjoyed our time at the zoo. It is a small zoo, but has many animals that I have not seen in other zoos.
    Pros
    We loved the polar bears. I really liked that we could see them above, below and even on the internet when we got home. Another crowd favorite was the snow leopards.
    Cons
    Free Maggie! Before I visited, I was of the ...

  • it's ok
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/30/07
    To me the animals looked hungry or sick (I grew up on a farm, so I'm pretty critical). The cages/pens didn't look like they really got the care and upkeep they need. It was good to see the native animals all in one place. I guess I've been spoiled from other great zoo's---Milwaukee's or especially Omaha's zoo (an absolute must see)!! The overall layout leaves room for a lot of potential with the right zookeepers.

  • Maggie the Elephant
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/14/07
    Very sad sight. One lone elephant in snow filled Alaska. Elephants are very social creatures as everyone knows and these selfish zoo keepers have decided to keep Maggie alone, as if the company of human handlers were enough. She is probably "madder than a march hare" (nuts) now, and it is the zoo's fault for isolating an elephant this ...

  • Hope to go back soon!
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/11/07
    I loved the polar bears! I loved the woods outdoor feel! The eagles were gorgeous! I liked being so close the animals but still at a safe distance.

  • Get Maggie Out!
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/10/07
    Get Maggie Out! She doesn't use her treadmill anyway. She can't lose any pounds. She's an elephant, for goodness sakes! I wouldn't use that thing anyway!
