At one end of the park is Zoo America, where we were greeted by Roseate Spoonbills. Their bills look like spoons, and my son was mesmerized by these rosy colored birds. The overwhelming size of the alligator and crocodile also captured his attention. I was amazed to see my first roadrunner, which doesn’t look anything like the cartoon version. ZooAmerica’s 11-acre walk through features more than 200 animals from the five regions of North America. It’s an easy walk with lots of places to sit and rest, which you will do if you are traveling with a little one. You can rent strollers for under $12 at the main gate. Admission to ZooAmerica is included in the one-price admission to the park.
