There are a number of different types of zoos, varying widely in size and quality. Some are major tourist attractions with enormous collections of animals from around the world kept in enclosures that attempt to replicate their natural habitats. Others are drive-through parks, sometimes called wild animal parks. Still others are small roadside menageries with concrete slabs and iron bars. Another type of zoo, commonly called a petting zoo, is extremely popular with young children. Petting zoos feature a combination of domestic animals and some wild species that are docile enough to touch and feed. Zoos are wonderful places to take an outing with your family, while providing educational opportunities for both children and adults.

If you are looking for a great family outing, consider making a trip to a local zoo. Your kids will appreciate the time spent together in the outdoors, and it is a fun way to expose them to wild life in a relatively safe environment. No trip to the zoo is ever complete without extended time in the mammals' exhibits; and your children will love watching the gorillas, tigers, and lions in a natural setting. If you are a fan of beautiful gardens, you will be glad to learn that many zoos also have gardens where they exhibit exotic plants and flowers. While your children spend time learning about reptiles and birds, you can spend a few moments of your own admiring tropical plant varieties.
