Today I came to the Blank Park Zoo with my family. It was hard finding a parking spot with all the people though. The employees did help us in finding animals we wanted to go see. There was maps all around so we didn't get lost. The food actually tasted really good. If I had a choice of coming here again I would definitely.

This zoo is the perfect size to either take a morning or afternoon with the family. The have both inside and outside exhibits and plenty of animals to see. They've also recently had quite a few babies born within the zoo, which is very exciting! In the summers I recommend checking out Zoo Brew. A fun evening for adults only. Make sure to also stop by when the keepers are doing their animal talks. You can see the animal (usually) a lot better and learn a ton of great facts!

This has always been a good zoo. It is small and easy to do in one day. They have been making new habits and improvements over the last few years. All the staff are friendly, helpful and informative.

Wow, this zoo is absolutely amazing considering it's located in a small City compared to larger zoos in New York or San Diego. This place is an absolutely must go if you are looking for a fun weekend to hang out and get some awesome pictures with animals. Icing on the cake is that they offer beer events at the zoo during special events.

Very small zoo but great for young children. My children’s favorite part is the playground and petting area. I would recommend eating prior to arrival since the safari cafe is expensive and the wait is long.
