Wild Animal Park


The Wild Animal Park is connected with the San Diego Zoo, but located in Escondido, about 25 minutes from our house. It is big & spread out, so you have to be prepared to walk...a lot...

Throughout the day, they have "Keeper talks", where the zookeeper answers questions, & sometimes, as shown above, brings the animals up close & personal. Here's Ismael wanting to run up to the animal (whatever it was).

You can also go up in a hot air balloon, which we did not do, as it costs quite a bit. Here we're on a "safari" tram that shows you animals in their "natural habitats".

They also have a petting area with deer to pet & feed. Ismael loved it.
