I find it interesting that the Columbus Zoo also has a waterpark and a golf course. It really sounds like a world class zoo.

I am looking forward to traveling with my son showing him the National parks and the other interesting things that make up out world. In the five hens review I liked the fact that the book is succinct and helpful, with a new baby I tend to skim most things these days.

It was interesting to see the Columbus zoo on the list. We are not that far from there and we’ve never been. You can’t beat a water park and golf!

I was suprised that Disney’s Animal Kingdom was included on the latter list, but in explaining it, yes, it makes good sense. I’ve been there many times and I love it. It is a great learning experience for everyone, but especially the kids.

“3. Omaha’s Henry Doorly Zoo (Omaha, NE)” I went there as a kid, I didn’t realize it was a top zoo! Pretty cool!

I loved your zoo list, I was baffled not to see the Memphis Zoo, which is also home to giant pandas, and pleased to see the Audobon Zoo, since Im from New Orleans, and I love that zoo!

#3 Henry Doorly Zoo is in the town I grew up and I have watched it become bigger throughout the years.

We’ve been to two of your top ten zoos. We’ll have to try and get to the rest of them in our travels.

The San Diego zoo also has a wild animal park that they are affiliated with.

2. Affordability. Traveling can be expensive, so any opportunity to have a lot of fun at a reasonable price is great. Most of the suggestions from National Geographic are for great activities that are either low cost or free – you can’t beat that!

I found on the Top Ten Zoos List the Butterfly Garden with over 1000 species of butterflies at the Bronx Zoo very interesting.

I read the review. Two points that stood out for me (which I love!) is that the book concentrates on cheap or free things AND that they avoid tourist traps.
