It is not the Serengetti but Zoo Miami.  In 2010, the MetroZoo was renamed and given a much needed face lift.  It includes now 740 total acres; 327 acres developed and over 3 miles of walkways with more than 2,000 animals, representing over 500 species and over 40 endangered species.

It is a great place to visit and houses more than 700 wild animals in a cageless subtropical environment.  The Safari stroller (similar to a bicycle but far more comfortable) helps you navigate the terrain with shade and speed. You learn a thing or two in the process which is always a wonderful exercise. They identify gorillas by rings around their noses similar to fingerprints on humans. Elephants only carry water in their trunk and never drink water through their trunk.  Rhinos are more closely related to horses than hippos and both the male and female antelope have horns. This fact is fascinating–grooming and social interaction is rarely observed among female gorillas.  It is the summer–run to your local zoo.
