Brevard Zoo is a small, 75-acre zoo in Melbourne, Florida. This incredibly naturalistic park provides home to over 650 animals from 165 species from all over the world. Visitors explore different habitats via raised boardwalks that cut through shady, lush greenery. They can also kayak through restored wetlands in the Wild Florida exhibit or through the Expedition Africa, watching animals graze on both banks. Kids can splash in the Indian River Play Lagoon and get close to various animals in the touch tank in the Paws on Play area. Or even better, you can zip above the zoo along Treetop Trek, through a South America exhibit. You can also get a giraffe to eat from your hand, invite a large, brightly colored parrot to land on your shoulder, or even pet a rhino.
