African Savannah To completely open the weekend of May 30th 2014

Barring any further delays, African Savannah is due to completely open the weekend of May 30th 2014. They have already opened the Lions portion of it. We're now awaiting the Zebra, Giraffes and ostriches section Along with the 50% longer train ride.

The 2 male Lions are 3 years old and the 2 females are about a year and half. They are waiting for the females to get a little older before the male lions can be out with them at the same time.

As with all their new areas they now new Lion Statues for the kids to pose on.

But lets not forget some other areas of the Zoo as well...

And here was the new addition to the Polar Bear Exhibit!

 LOL! Just kidding. This is part of the great lengths they go to to keep the Animals habitats clean a livable for each one.

Ever wonder how they clean the windows in the polar bear exhibit?

 the new Water Play area is also a riot for kids especially in the hot sun!
The Water Volcano!

 As always folks, be courteous to other patrons, the animal and be aware they go to great pains to give these animals a comfortable life! Be be kind to the animals and their handlers. Be respectful of the ground and keep them clean. Put your children and the others with you on their best behaviors.
