概要
クイックファクト: 3700頭以上の動物が650種以上を代表して、この100エーカーの野生生物保護区を故郷としています。動物園はまた、カリフォルニアコンドルのような絶滅危惧種を繁殖させ絶滅から救うための1800エーカーの広大な野生動物公園同盟を運営しています。
見どころ: 舞台裏では、献身的な栄養士チームが、世界最大級の動物用厨房の一つで毎日6000以上の特製食事を準備しており、ホッキョクグマ用の冷凍魚のポプシクルも含まれています。動物園の野生動物ケアの専門家たちは、20万頭以上の動物の繁殖に成功しており、その中には米国で初めて生まれたジャイアントパンダの赤ちゃんも含まれています。
インサイダーヒント
- Skip the crowded entrance bus and take the Kangaroo Bus (hop-on-hop-off) instead to cover more ground efficiently.
- Visit the absolutely must-see Giant Panda Research Station before 11 AM when the pandas are most active and the viewing lines are shortest.
- Wear comfortable walking shoes because the zoo is built on a canyon with steep hills, and the Skyfari aerial tram gives your legs a break with stunning views.
- The Children's Zoo area and petting paddock are surprisingly delightful for adults too, especially during the 11:30 AM reptile handling session.
