General Info
San Antonio Zoo and Aquarium is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing a high standard of care for its animals and plant collection while offering a recreation experience for its visitors, and is located in San Antonio. The zoo started with various animals assembled in the 1800s, and in 1914 George W. Brackenridge, one of the city's leading citizens, made a major gift of land and animals, and occupies an area of more than 50-acres. Accredited by the American Zoo and Aquarium Association, the zoo is open throughout the year. It is home to more than 3,500 animals representing over 750 species of animals, birds, reptiles and amphibians. More than 850,000 guests visit the San Antonio Zoo and Aquarium annually, many of them children participating in education programs and field trips.

Provided by YP.comI have been to many zoos all over the world but I love coming home to ours. It might not have all the exotic animals that others do and it might not be as big as others are. However, there are plenty of animals to see and the newer area they built for kids is wonderful. The interaction in the kids area is a great learing experience for your kids!
