Besides the very cold temperatures we endured today in Colorado Springs (around 48 degrees) the zoo was enjoyable. Although far smaller than the Denver Zoo, it seems that I was a lot closer to the animals, albeit, behind thick glass or fencing. You can even purchase a little bit of lettuce and feed it to the giraffes. The zoo keeps 17 giraffes and even has a breeding program. The habitats are more condensed, but more engaging to the visitor.
