Sarasota Jungle Gardens is a garden and animal attraction located on Bay Shore RoadFounded in 1939, it is one of the oldest continuously operated attractions in the state. The gardens started with 10 acres of land which were planted with thousands of tropical flowers and trees from all over the world.
In the 1970s, the first Exotic Bird Show was created and featured cockatoos and macaws.
Gradually more animals and shows were added. Today, the gardens are home to a large variety of animals including parrots, small mammals, and primates as well as many reptiles such as alligators, crocodiles, iguanas, lizards, and snakes. There are also many pink flamingos in the garden.
