WHEN MY HUSBAND AND I WERE IN GRADUATE SCHOOL IN PHOENIX WE OFTEN WENT TO THE ZOO WHERE A GOOD FRIEND OF OURS WORKED. THE ZOO HAD MANY LOCAL AND EXOTIC ANIMALS. IT IS A PLACE WHERE MANY TOURISTS FLOCK. WE STILL HAVE MANY PHOTOS OF THE ANIMALS THERE. WE LIKED THE VEGETATION THERE
IT COVERS 125 ACRES AND HAS A COLLECTION OF OVER 1200 ANIMALS. IT IS RECOGNIZED AS ONE OF THE TOP FIVE ZOOS IN THE COUNTRY. THE ANIMALS INCLUDE VARIOUS EXOTIC ANTELOPE LOOKING BEASTS, REPTILES, BIRDS, FISH, AND OTHER MAMMALS FROM AROUND THE WORLD.
PHOENIX ALSO HAS A WONDERFUL BOTANICAL GARDEN AS WELL. IT IS WITHIN 50 ACRES WITH 140 RARE AND ENDANGERED SPECIES. IT IS 70 YEARS OLD AND IS INTERNATIONALLY FAMOUS FOR IT'S RENOWNED PLANT COLLECTIONS. WE USED TO WALK THERE MANY TIMES AND HAVE TAKEN MANY PICTURES OF THE UNIQUE DESERT FLOWERS.
