    Medium sized zoo. It has a bit of everything. Must see tiger, anteater, giraffes, chimpanzees. Perfect for smaller kids to enjoy the animals up close for couple of hours.

    Did you know? The Zoo opened in 1927 with a diverse collection of 40 animals, mostly gathered from area parks, including monkeys, raccoons, birds, deer and various other small animals. Read more

    Not exactly the biggest zoo but decent size and great way to spend a few hours of the day and see all the cool animals and even some feedings you can do

    Don't miss the chimpanzees! They are the highlight of the Zoo, climbing to the top of their cage, chasing each other around, and grooming each other.

    The perfect place to work up an appetite for our Italian food, after a long day of LIONS and TIGERS and BEARS! Oh, my! -Piatti Sacramento

    Nice enough Zoo, for a mid-sized city. The parking leaves a lot to be desired, however. Plan ahead or you'll be walking a long distance.

    For fun, look for a batman symbol, giant fork, a hummingbird, and duck feet at the zoo. They're all "hidden mickeys" around the zoo.

    Make sure to be here for the Giraffe Encounter. Only $3 to get up close and personal, feed a giraffe.

    Cold days/mornings are best to see the hyena and the snow leopards. Trill your tongue to get the kookaburra to laugh.

    If you need to change a diaper and find the restroom space awful, use the picnic area near the carousel ... Deserted most of the time.

    Kids need to be 42in to ride the carousel alone as there are no safety belts.

    I'm 5'11" and barely fit on the train; it was quite uncomfortable.

    Avoid the train unless you want to wait in line for a half an hour.

    Look, I grew up going to this zoo so it's sentimental but now that I'm older I can see that the cages and animal areas are way too small and that the animals are probably miserable because of it...

    Don't bother with the train ride... Not worth the time.
