Truly remarkable zoo! Great selection of animals, the grounds are spacious and properly maintained. Don't miss the cheetahs, anteaters and the many bird exhibits. Go midweek to avoid the crowds.
First timer and was not disappointed! I think it's better than Ft. Worth. Loved the different animals they had, came in just in time for the snake feeding (gross!) and LOVED feeding the giraffes!
Dallas Zoo is the LARGEST zoo in the state and the ONLY zoo in Texas where you can see koalas! Visit them at 1:30 every day for a special Keeper Encounter and to see them awake and moving around.
Make sure to check out the activity board at the main entrance for all of the great FREE animal talks going on throughout the day! It is amazing to see their work up close.
Just left. Great zoo. I love how almost all the animals are endangered. Let's you get a chance to see them before they're all gone. Cobras are awesome, must see the reptile place!
The new addition to this zoo has been a shop stopper. If you've ever wanted to feed giraffes, this is the zoo to do it at! The atmosphere is exotic and breath-taking. Go and visit the animals.
Go ape at the Dallas Zoo. It's the largest zoological park in Texas (bigger than Fort Worth's Zoo). The Dallas Zoo is home to 406 species and 1,800 animals (6,800 counting invertebrates).
Make sure to check in on four square for a free scoop of ice cream in the cafeteria. This zoo is huge! Gotta check out the giraffes, the grill for an up close look at lions, and the bird show.
This is an awesome attraction for visitors and residents a like. They have a children's zoo within the larger zoo where kids can pet and handle animals. The Aviary show is AWESOME!
Good to visit even in summer since there is good amount of shade on most walkways..remember to carry lots of water since a small water bottle costs $3. Faucets let u refill but water is warm..
Best buy, conservation cup. $1.00 refills & five locations in the zoo to fill it up. Best part is that nothing goes to the landfill. The cup is totally reusable! Conservation at its best!!
If you live nearby and have kids get the season family pass you get free parking free unlimited carrasel rides free pony rides and much more it pays for itself by the third visit
so Dallas Zoo: well done. new habitats, lots of keepers, energetic staff. in-park monorail doesn't run in hight heat (always?) due to lack of a/c. DARTlight rail goes directly there for $1.75
My bf and I really enjoyed it, we got to feed the giraffes and ride a camel. We have a membership to a museum in Ohio so we got 1/2 off admission! 12 bucks for a very fun afternoon, I felt like a kid!
After driving 2 hrs from Austin, I was bummed! The weather was ridiculous. I didn't get a chance to see any animals AT ALL! I'll be back next year for sure.
The new Giants of the Savanna section is AMAZING. Go early in the morning (when they open) and all the animals are out for feeding and not hiding from the heat.
Dallas Zoo encompasses 95 acres of exotic and traditional zoo animals. Visitors are greeted at the entrance by the tallest statue in Texas—a 67.5 foot giraffe.
Go ahead and get a membership, especially if you plan on going more than once. All the kids/grandkids not only get in for free but also free Carousel & Monorail rides. Leggi tutto
even though ft worth has a bigger, nicer zoo, i am still sentimental about the dallas zoo (many visits there as a kid). definitely worth checking out with the fam... Leggi tutto
If it doesn't have a tail it's not a monkey, even if it has a monkey kind of shape; if it doesn't have a tail it's not a monkey, if it doesn't have a tail its not a monkey it's an ape.
Actually Dallas Zoo in the largest Zoo in Texas. Fort Worth seems bigger because their layout in more spaced. Dallas's has more land and animal space exhibit.
Apparently the ice cream people don't ever know when Foursquare has a deal on the free ice cream. They didn't even check mine, even though ibdid in fact have one.
The Dallas Zoo, an accredited member of the Association of Zoos... & Aquariums, is the largest zoological experience in Texas featuring a 106-acre park, thousands of animals, and an education department that offers programs for all ages.(Mostra altri)
