| - EHRMAGHERD I LOVE THE ZOO.
Unfortunately, the weather is only nice enough to visit for a few months out of the year, or I would practically live there.
The Arizona Trail is fantastic for local mammals, snakes, and insects. My favorite animal in this area is the Collared Peccary, aka Javelina, aka tusk pigs.
I love Monkey Village, with adorable little squirrel monkeys swinging around practically within reach (don't touch the monkeys).
The meerkats are always a favorite on the Africa Trail, as are all the animals on the Children's Trail (but especially the Ocelot and the Wallabies).
There's a free water feature for the kids, so bring their bathing suits and a towel during warm weather. Also bring hats, sunscreen, and maybe insect repellent year-round - even in cool weather the sun shines brightly and you will get burned, and bothered by bees.
