Review:
Home to more than 1,500 animals from around the globe, Zoo Atlanta’s claim to fame is being the only zoo in the United States to have Giant Panda twins.
Born in July 2013, twins Mei Lun and Mei Huan have been the stars of the show; however, the zoo has a wealth of excellent exhibitions, habitats and educational programs to explore. The zoo’s Asian Forest is home to the world’s largest collection of orangutans, while the Ford African Rain Forest houses more than 20 gorillas. If you have kids who love animals, this Atlanta attraction is not to be missed.
Watch interactive wildlife shows at Zoo Atlanta, talks by animal keepers, and training demonstrations; go behind the scenes and feed an African elephant, giraffe or a giant panda; feed parakeets by hand or head to the petting zoo for face-to-face animal interaction.
