This zoo doesn't have that much to offer. It is a good place to take the kids and visit if you are not from the area to see some of the wildlife but can easily be seen in about a hour or two without missing anything or feeling tired.
For such a small zoo there are quite a few 'exotic' animals including pandas, peacocks, and camels. To people not from the midwest this is a great place to see much of the local wildlife including gophers, ducks (that can be feed with a quarter), and eagles.
An extensive wolf exhibit is in the progress of being built and will offer another exciting exhibit to the zoo.
A carousel ride for only a dollar is a great way to wrap up the day in the zoo. There are a few food options in the park and the zoo is not far out of town but isolated enough.
A petting zoo that includes horses, goats and other farm animals. A really cool thing for people who have never been on a farm.
