If you haven’t read the piece I linked to in the New York Times, you really should. You in particular I think would very much enjoy it. It made me think a lot about Tucker of course!

I need to make sure other Philadelphians see this since it is a honest and levelheaded review of the zoo by a first time visitor from out of town.

I feel you — if you didn’t you should check out the post I linked to where I muse on my feelings on zoos. They’ve wavered over the years, and I am much picker now.

I love visiting animal sanctuaries as well. Glad the ones in your area are taking good care of their animals!

I haven’t been to Animal Kingdom in years but I’m actually hoping to go back in January! Fingers crossed 🙂

I know, right?! I think the healthy food booth was the biggest shock of all. Hopefully more US attractions follow their lead!

Oh, I am DYING to do a safari — and for that matter, just go to Africa in general! It sounds so divine. I’d be in my element!

Maybe it’s time for another trip to Philly 🙂 I know I’ll be making many over the years!

I’ve often found them to be rather restrictive to the animals. However, I’m so glad that Philly Zoo is one that is being progressive in improving the facilities for their residents. I will make a point of visiting this one, when I make it to that part of the world again.
