    Both great zoos! I hope to visit Detroit around 2025-6. Do you prefer the Arctic Ring of Life or the Polk Penguin center?

    They're both great but I got to say arctic ring of life. Polar bears are more my thing:D

    Is it just me or does London zoo need a bit of a revamp? One of my friends say so.

    Maybe a few parts, but isn't it's age it's beauty? If you revamp the zoo, then it's like the history isn't there.

    My home zoo is the NC Zoo. It doesn't have a very wide variety of species but it has stunning exhibits and is the largest zoo by area in the US.

    Well to an extent, I don't know if concrete 20ft elephant enclosure (just example) is history but a statue or building for sure.

    I'm pretty sure the Wilds is bigger.

    Less of a zoo and more of a "safari park".

    I think that it's more zoo than safari park, but it's still pretty big
