Zoo: Walk
Within its 1,200 acres you will discover over 425 fascinating animals representing 145 species including coyotes, bighorn sheep, oryx, zebras, cheetahs and meerkats. There are lush botanical gardens representing 10 different desert ecosystems and a journey to “Eagle Canyon,” with its streams, mountain lions, bobcats, Mexican wolves and golden eagles is a definite “must see.”
