Love this zoo and have been the last couple years buying the season passes for the family. It doesn't get old for the kids or the parents if you take different routes and go at different times. I have never tho seen a sea lion show and they have been there for years but probably due to temperature restrictions tho. The rides did get a little pricey and is why it's not a 5 star rating along with the snack stands won't even provide you with water for your infant or children they tell you to walk a quarter mile in the desert heat to a water fountain. I understand that they are not the same owner as the zoo but that doesn't mean they can't figure that out by replacing them with someone who cares about the patrons as well they might prosper a little more. Great place tho I would always recommend them over the Phoenix zoo unless your into the hype of paying for every little thing.
