The absolute best kind of kitschy. This place is filled with endless giddy surprises of but wait... theres more!. The zoo exceeded our expectations. SO MANY ANIMALS! Definitely worth paying extra to see and feed them. They all seem healthy and well taken care of. The camel was my favorite. Besides the zoo... there's the dinosaur exhibit, taxidermy room, spooky mannequins, and more!
