It's the thing to do in Omaha!
It cooled-down during our visit.
A lot.
It was in the low 60's
by the time we left.
A real steam engine!
The elephant habitat is huge!
They move around so silently!
The zoo was packed during our visit.
It was the final week for the
US Olympic Swim Team Qualifiers
and the College World Series
(the Royals' AAA team was also
in town for a series of home games).
It's a hungry baby goat!
The mommy goat preferred to be
petted & brushed inside its 'crib'.
The best way to see the zoo:
Sky Safari!
To be up high with the birds...
(the Sky Safari does not
cross-over the big cat area)
The picnic area is in the middle
of the Prairie Dog habitat!
They are curious little critters!
Next stop:
the giant desert bio-dome!
Real desert plant life
that grows year-round in Omaha!
Davis saw a real-life ocelot!
(after many Minecraft encounters
with the cat-family critters)
The Henry Doorly Zoo
in Omaha is Owesome!
