EHRMAGHERD I LOVE THE ZOO.\n\nUnfortunately, the weather is only nice enough to visit for a few months out of the year, or I would practically live there.\n\nThe Arizona Trail is fantastic for local mammals, snakes, and insects. My favorite animal in this area is the Collared Peccary, aka Javelina, aka tusk pigs. \n\nI love Monkey Village, with adorable little squirrel monkeys swinging around practically within reach (don't touch the monkeys). \n\nThe meerkats are always a favorite on the Africa Trail, as are all the animals on the Children's Trail (but especially the Ocelot and the Wallabies).\n\nThere's a free water feature for the kids, so bring their bathing suits and a towel during warm weather. Also bring hats, sunscreen, and maybe insect repellent year-round - even in cool weather the sun shines brightly and you will get burned, and bothered by bees.
