Akron Zoo Reviews

“Excellent zoo with great natural displays viewable in 2 hours

First time to visit Akron Zoo after 45 years. What a great zoo its become. Some very unusual exhibits. Everything displayed in very natural looking habitat. Even have Komodo dragons, snow leopard and upside-down jellyfish. Also enjoyed the lions, wolves, coyotes and otters. Grandson slid through the slide in otter exhibit. Even though zoo sits on a very hilly site...”
