Lions & Tigers & Bears, Oh My!!





Walking into the Houston Zoo is like entering a far away island full of exotic animals and tropical plants, like being on Jurassic Park. Although, instead of having to travel by plane or boat, it's smack dab in the middle of Houston! Enjoy a day of family fun without the hassle of a long drive by taking the Metro. Let the kids interact with the animals at the Petting Zoo and pack a lunch as the food available to purchase there is quite pricey. The Zoo Keepers are very friendly and can offer their knowledge on all the animals habits.





Take in the scenery and feel like you are on a tropical getaway. I was amazed by the considerable amount of exotic plant life, it was as if I forgot I was in Texas, but in some resort in Mexico. Y0u can find discounts by clicking on this link: http://www.houstonzoo.org/coupons/.


The Zoo also offers a listing of free days http://www.houstonzoo.org/revisedfreedays/. Beware-- it can be quite packed during those days!
