    Hopefully not actually, as Rhino Rally is very fast-paced, and it's hard to see the animals. However, practically all exhibits that involve a car, train, jeep, boat, or other form of transportation are fast-paced.

    Does anybody know why this park is not AZA-accredited? The other Six Flags animal park in California is.

    The map shows some interesting antelope species. Is it up to date in terms of animals currently kept? Is this place worth visiting or is it a total dump? I haven't heard a lot about it.

    I think for the most part, i saw at probably at least 90 percent of the species when i visited in august. I think that the safari park was expensive but now that it is included in the normal ticket i think it is reasonable as long as you like rides as well. The habitats were average to very nice with some such as the north american area which is 50 acres being excellent. The elephants have a large habitat and there are tons of species of hoofstock so i recomend it and cant wait to see if all animal species will be kept.
