It was cold so many animals weren't on exhibit.

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveler

Most of the outdoor animals were hiding inside where it is warm. $25 for parking was steep.

5/5 - Excellent

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! It's free and they focus a lot on conservation and restoring natural habitats.

5/5 - Excellent

Get off the red line at Woodly Park. Walk 10 minutes and you're there. Go on a week day, in the fall. No crowds.

4/5 - Good

Verified traveler
