Nice wildlife places

kriskent

Hi there. Apart say from Africa (kenya, mt kilimanjaro) wherelse do you think it's good to have a photo opportunity for wildlife animals both birds and really wild life like lions, tigers, elephants etc.

Also, are there any zoos you know that really has a big area and that it allows animals to roam around an open area rather than put them inside a cage? Tell me where and what zoo.

Many thanks

Animal Kingdom in Disney World.

San Diego's Wild Animal Park (Actually in Escondido, about a half-hour north). You can see cheetahs and rhinos running around all over, for instance. Only a few cages but, when we're talking about the extremely RARE California Condors, it's only because they're not ready to be released yet.

You know, there may be a deal there yet that, for a couple hundred bucks or so, you get to CAMP OUT in that park and see what goes on there after "normal business hours" :uhoh

I've been pretty impressed with the North Carolina zoo (link). They have an exhibit of the African plains animals (elephants, hoofed animals, etc) that, I swear, is nearly 1/2 mile from one end to the other and about 1/4 mile across. They have a number places along the perimeter from which you can view the animals on exhibit. The balance of the exhibits are smaller, but they are all very nice.
