This zoo is pretty large. That's the only good thing I can really think to say about it. They have a lot of parrots, which I really enjoy. Sadly, most of their parrots looked sick. They showed signs that are usually associated with stress and a poor diet, but I'm not sure why. They all had fresh fruits and vegetables available and large enclosures with room to roam around. The otters were in an incredibly tiny cage. It might have been good for a bird or two, but there were two otters in it. I know they're working on a new enclosure, but they shouldn't have otters in the first place if there wasn't a place for them. I felt like $30 was an insane price, especially when it seemed that anything worth seeing was under construction. They also nickel and dime you on the attractions. For $30, I shouldn't have to shell out another dime. The overall layout just seems dirty and drab right now. Hopefully that's one of the things they're working on. I can't imagine why anyone would go here instead of the much nicer, much cheaper Phoenix Zoo.
