The Lincoln Zoo Response

Entering the Lincoln Zoo this past Saturday was a fun and exciting experience. On the way to my destination I was trying to visualize what the zoo might be like. What kind of animals would be there, how big might this place be? I had a good idea of what I thought it was going to be like and my guess was pretty close.
The zoo has a very family oriented atmosphere, a good variety of animals and some fun exciting activities for young kids. I took my little cousin to the zoo with me and thank goodness I did because she was a zoo expert. Anything I wanted to know she could tell me. Our exploration first started by stopping by the petting portion of the zoo. There was a great selection of animals to feed and pet. There were goats, lamas, and even guinea pigs. Even I enjoyed this stop. Some of the more exotic animals were the camels, seals, baboons, and crocodiles. I enjoyed seeing the camels the most. I had never seen one before and to be able to touch such a large animal was a fun experience. The most information part for me was learning about the raindeer. I knew nothing about these awesome animals untill my stop at the Lincoln Zoo. The zoo offers a train ride though the entire park explaining details about each animal, which is a great learning tool for the young kids and even some parents. The variety of animals and fun activities offered at the Lincoln zoo makes it a definite stop for family fun.
The zoo is a great option here in Lincoln for family fun. Everywhere we looked there was a group of family members dashing across the path with kids smiling and parents explaining. It is great to have this option here in Lincoln because it doesn’t require an all day itinerary or weekend vacation. It is a fun and easy stop to spend time with your family members and see things that we don’t see every day.
After making a quick stop at every exhibition I formed a conclusion about the Lincoln zoo. This zoo is here for the families of Lincoln. It may not be the biggest zoo in this part of Nebraska but it is a great option to have at our hands in Lincoln.
