With more than 5,000 animals displayed in acres of zoological park, complete with ponds, waterfalls, and gorgeous floral displays, the Toronto Zoo is an excellent recreation spot for visitors of all ages.
There are seven tropical pavilions that encompass Africa, Americas, Indo Malaya, Australasia, Indian Rhino, Gaur, and Malayan Woods. In addition, zoo lovers can view over 40 exhibits of native and exotic fish, watch polar bears swim and dive for fish, or view seals playing through underground view windows.
The more popular attractions are Kesho Park, 30 acres of an African Savanna, where zoo-goers will witness panoramic views of rivers, waterholes, kopje rocks, an elephant highway, rhino ridden, and animals grazing in habitats especially created to resemble their natural homes. The underground zoo features exhibits such as the interior of a beaver's lodge.
Children will enjoy walking behind the South American waterfall, located just around the corner from the Maya Temple Ruins. It's also the coolest place in the Zoo on a hot summer day. New to the Zoo this year are two African lions, a Sumatran tiger and two new grizzly bears. In addition, children's play areas have been upgraded.
The Toronto Zoo is so vast that it is impossible to cover it all in one day. A zoomobile is available from Easter until Thanksgiving to transport visitors from one themed pavilion to another. Strollers and wagons are also available to rent for young children. Pick up a map at the main gate and select your favorite exhibits before you start your walk to ensure you don't miss anything that you wanted to see. You're also encouraged to bring a picnic lunch in order to save time and money, or there are several McDonald's restaurants located throughout the Zoo.
Take Highway 401 east to Meadowvale Road. Go north on Meadowvale and follow the signs to the Zoo entrance.
