I really like the Wildlife World Zoo for one main reason. You can get really close to the animals. This allows for a better zoo experience, especially if you have kids. They have done a really good job in the last few years of expanding the zoo and adding exhibits and rides. I remember first coming to this zoo and it was pretty small and you could see everything in about an hour and a half. I was on a field trip today with my daughter and we only saw about half of the zoo in two hours.
I would like to go back out to this zoo with my family but being as how this zoo charges $15 more per adult and $5 more per kid than the Phoenix Zoo, it is almost not worth it. Their membership prices are also outrageous. Almost double what the Phoenix Zoo charges. This is the main reason that they don't get 5 stars from me. I can understand that they are doing a lot of expanding and are trying to make the experience better but it kind of stinks when they are doing it on the back of the people that come to the zoo.
