I have come to really not like our zoo. For the cost there aren't enough animals to see. Why don't we have a zebra?? How hard could they be to take care of? They took the painted dogs away because as usual one persons dumb actions make everyone not get to enjoy the dogs. A smarter and idea would have been to put plexiglass around the opening on the observation deck, but would be to easy or take to much brain power for the people who run the zoo. We don't have that many impressive animals, I will not go in and see the monkeys that is pointless and it stinks and then there are the roaches. The aquarium isn't that great, nothing great in there. For the amount they charge to get in, how much the food costs and the fact that the place that makes the good fries is only open when it is summer really makes you want to drive out of town to visit a zoo in OH. As for bears they are mostly gone, some brown bears and polar that are usually doing nothing. Anyone on here saying the zoo is great is lying to you, like Matthew U.
