Have you ever wanted to break up the monotony of driving on a road trip? Or maybe you’ve had some free time when visiting somewhere, and you weren’t sure what to do?
We always suggest visiting a zoo, but hey, we’re partial to that idea! There are so many fun reasons to visit a Zoo! On our last Zoo Adventure, we came up with the following list of reasons to visit a Zoo. Why a top 8 list? We thought ten would be too many and five isn’t enough.
8. Have a great story to tell family and friends
We all know there’s always an animal or two that does something adorable, funny, or memorable! Remember that miniature cow that likes neck scratches?
7. Stop and Stretch Your Legs
There are many small Zoos where you can see everything in an hour or two.
6. Take Zoo Selfies
Build up that photo album, and make your followers jealous you’re out having fun. Also, share them on selfie Sunday!
5. Broaden Your Zoo Experience
EVERY Zoo is different. Big or small we love them all! Experience the variety and diversity of zoos.
You can visit China at the Memphis Zoo. Alexandria Zoo will take you on a trek through the Louisiana swamps. In Omaha you journey to all the jungles in the world.
How does your zoo stack up?
4. Learn About Exotic Animals
Do you know which continent each animal comes from? Become the trivia master of animal knowledge and 20 questions!
3. Learn About a State’s Native Species
Do you know every state has slightly different species? For example, Maine has Moose. Oklahoma has Grizzlies, and Colorado has elk.
What unique animal does your state have?
2. Clean Family Fun
You want to make great memories right? Learn something new as a family. Have some laughs. Learn about the natural word around us.
1. Support the Conservation of Endangered Species
Big donations and gestures are not the only way to make a difference. Did you know the best and easiest way to support the conservation of endangered species is to patron zoos?
