Today, San Diego is one of the most popular places to live in, due to its diversity, and paradise-like weather and climate. However, it’s not just people that find the city appealing to live in, because there are a number of pets in the city as well! These pets are owned by thousands of animal lovers, of which the city is also famous for, which is why there are a number of animal attractions found in and around the area, the most famous of which is perhaps the San Diego Zoo.

The San Diego Zoo has within its walls over 4,000 animals spanning over 800 different species, making the zoo one of the largest collections of beasts in the country. Every animal thrives in the 107 acres that comprise the zoo. And because of the area’s climate, environment, and size, not only is San Diego Zoo ideal as a habitat for animals, but is also great for people who are visiting.

The size of the zoo is large, but it is very tourist friendly, in that it is quite easy to get around the different areas of the zoo, due to the multiple transportation options available. Buses are present that can shuttle people to over 75% of the park, and then there’s the Skyfari, which gives visitors a bird’s eye view of the whole zoo in addition to bringing them from one place to another. And then of course, there’s the multiple walkways that people who wish to move by walking can use, to easily get around the zoo.

Whether by bus, Skyfari, or walking, visitors will be thrilled to see the many open air attractions, and the animals that are contained in them, like the open air bird exhibits which feature the largest free-flight aviaries in the world! In addition to the open air exhibits, there are also a number of smaller indoor attractions with different themes that match the natural homes of the animals exhibited. Everything from African savannas and rainforests, to the frozen reaches of the North.

Any animal lover visiting San Diego has to drop by San Diego Zoo. The zoo is one of the most famous attractions in the city. It is definitely a must see place for everyone!
