I grew up going to the Milwaukee County Zoo. I loved it, especially the penguin exhibit.
When my husband and I moved to Columbus, OH, we got a zoo membership there and enjoyed going. That was when Jack Hanna was there.
After moving to the Dallas area, and having children, we would sometimes visit the Dallas Zoo and sometimes the Fort Worth Zoo. We did have a zoo membership at the Dallas Zoo for some time. We didn't go as often as the children would have liked. Our oldest, especially, LOVES animals.
What do I think of zoos? Well, I think they are great, as long as they are good to the animals.
