Rio Grande Zoo - user review
A very nice zoo. Most of the exhibits are both animal and visitor friendly, meaning the exhibits are well maintained for the comfort of the animals and are not closed in with wires and bars to hamper viewing and taking pictures by the visitor. This zoo is well laid out for walking and viewing, and n...

IgoUgo: Albuquerque Aquarium - Albuquerque Parks and Zoos - user review
This is an awesome orchestration of natural wonder. Sleek and graceful sharks glide about their sovereignty, a 285,000-gallon climate controlled, simulated natural habitat. Saltwater from the Gulf of Mexico is contained and capsulated in this state of the art facili...

Rio Grande Biotanic Garden - user review
A nicely maintained botanical garden specializing in plants and fauna native to New Mexico. You walk through at your own pace and take whatever time you want to look at the various exhibits. There is an indoor building for the cactus, which probably wouldn't survive in Albuquerque as well as they do...

Rio Grande Zoo - user review
I?™m told this zoo is only one of two zoos in the States (the other being San Diego) with Koalas! And, in the feline department, the zoo can boast two white Bengal tigers. Most of the animals are in a ?śnatural??environment and there is quite a bit of renovation going at the moment: a new home for t...
