Santa Ana Zoo

We love this zoo. We have been taking out children here for 30 years plus and now bring our grandchildren. It have evolved into a really nice zoo over the years. They have a ton of different primates, anteater, camels, a cool rainforest area with birds and turtles and seasonal butterfly exhibit and so much more. There is a train and a ferris wheel. A small food court, playground and gift shop also..Its a fun little day trip for the family. I 100% recommend this zoo.

We decided to visit the Santa Ana Zoo because the weather was much cooler than where we were planning to go. This is a small zoo, but the grounds make this so lush with all the beautiful plants. I was impressed with the butterfly enclosure. I've seen a few at larger zoos, but they had much fewer butterflies. Unfortunately, most of my photos were on my larger camera. These images are from my phone. I hope to come back to this review. and add images from my Sony.

Great little zoo! Took about an hour and a half to walk through the entire zoo including taking a train ride. Perfect size zoo for toddlers! They also have a playground near the entrance.
