Franklin Park Zoo

I took myself to the Franklin Park Zoo recently because I hadn’t been there and I was in a mood to see the animals. I know there are differing opinions about the benefit (or detriment) of zoos and I understand these viewpoints, but I just love zoos. I like watching the animals and the other visitors’ reactions. And I like taking their pictures. The Franklin Park Zoo is reasonably priced ( my senior ticket was about $17) and parking is free (though I had a bit of a hard time finding the parking). It’s small-ish and easily done in a day, including travel. Maybe you’ll give it a try too. Stone Zoo next on my list! And, now that March has arrived, will it be coming in like these lions?

One thought on “Franklin Park Zoo

  1. Thanks Pat, I love the Franklin Park Zoo. This zoo teaches how important it is to take care of the animals. We took grandchildren there last spring and it was interesting to listen to the narrators about how most of the animals got there. Some were rescued from dangerous people, I believe it was the lions. Looking forward to going back. Always went there as a kid.
