    The facility isn't very old. My parents showed me it once it opened, they want to go and so do I. I hope to go there sometime soon. They aren't AZA-Accredited, I don't believe. They do have some species like Scimitar Horned Oryx and Nilgai.

    According to their website, SLG opened in 2016.

    Their website says they participate in the Eastern Massasauga SSP. I didn't know non-AZA zoos could do that.

    The facility being so new I wonder if they are going to try to be accredited or not.
