It wasn't as big as I expected but it beats some of the zoos I have been to. We got to see a lot of animals that can't be seen anywhere else. We had a nice picnic and overall had a great weekend here. The orangutan was a bit frustrated though, I don;t think he likes people.
And thank God. Mickey charges $150 bucks to get in! At $9.per it's a little pricy for what looks like a retirement home for animals. If it were $5 i would go more often just to see what happens next. My first view was a building full of Hippo, Giraff skulls and other dead animals in various positions. The other animals were interesting if you ...

Decent smaller zoo
By momof3, 06/19/08
No elephants :( but overall nice areas for the animals. well kept zoo make sure you get a map because you will go in circles! This zoo is right across from Fairy Land and a park with amusment rides! You can buy tickets combined for all 3 if you want to spend the day somewhere.

It was a great local zoo
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/12/07
I have lived in northern cal. for over 15 years and the first time I visited the zoo was 2 months ago. I don't usually enjoy zoo, and this one was small, yet engaging, and had a wide variety. I appreciated the gift shop which allowed my three small kids to play with, and explore items before purchasing them.

What's up with the Penquins?
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/02/07
Our group, People with Disabilities did enjoy the Zoo. Our group toured the Sacramento Zoo on July 28th 2007. The price was ok, but We were disappointed in the Penquin's. They seem to be in a very small area that was not large enough for them to swim. We also noted there were no elephants or Ostrich.
The refreshments were very expensive and for people with more than 1 child it would not be possible for these families to attend the zoo.

It is not that bad
By techymike, 07/15/07
I have seen many better Zoo's but at least this one is close enough and the kids do like it. Let us not forget that one day our children may not have some of these animals around so rather then bash the Zoo I would recommend to enjoy what we have.

Were is PETA
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/12/07
I read that the zoo was small but decided that we would give it a shot anyway. First of all the crowds of people in there were unbelievable and unsafe. Most places have as a number cut off as a safety measure but obviously not here. Get the money (8 dollars) and get them in as fast as possible was the impression we got. I couldn't believe that ...
