I'm not a big zoo fan, but since I"m new to the area, I figured I'd see what the local zoo looks like. It's not a fairly huge zoo. But definitely has the typical giraffes, lions, and other hippos.
There are different children's program available if parents need something to do during the day. During the winter they have a evening show called Zoo Lights that I've heard is really nice.
Adult ticket is $18.
If you have an ASU or student ID, show it.. they offer discounts!
The day I went, they did close at 4pm for some reason so only had about 1.5 to walk around but I suppose that's enough time to see everything.
