Rating System

This blog is dedicated to our travels to as many zoos as possible nation wide. We are fortunate enough to live in a state with an AMAZING zoo and it has been a bucket list item of mine to see every major zoo in the nation. After visiting one of the top ranked zoos recently and being a smidge disappointed, I decided to start a blog that ranks zoos based on personal family experience. Each zoo we visit will be ranked on the following... Amount of Animals Type of Animals Size of Zoo Foliage/Landscaping Exhibits/Habitats Pricing Entertainment Food These rankings will be based on a ten point scale with 10 points being excellent and 1 point being very poor. Please keep in mind that I am not a zoologist or biologist or anyone with any sort of background that would make me qualified to rate these professionally- I am just a mom who LOVES animals and LOVES going to zoos who wants to share her thoughts and opinions on our countries most popular (and perhaps un-popular) zoos. Enjoy and feel free to leave questions or feedback!
