Posted: Jul. 27th, 2012  |  By Michael Pearse

As a family destination, the Houston Zoo is one of the best attractions in Houston. With over 6,000 animals and a friendly and knowledgeable staff, kids and parents will have a blast learning about their favorite primates, marsupials and even dinosaurs. Daily animal meetings and events make visiting the zoo a fun experience while providing a day full of learning for inquisitive minds. Through informational exhibits and shows, guests will learn about the lives and environments of fascinating creatures as well as what we can do to make sure those in the wild are minimally impacted by human interaction and urban development.
