While not being in the major league of zoos, this is still one of the major attractions in the city. Due to its relatively small size, the zoo can be explored at a leisurely pace in less than two hours. The animals are on display in pleasant natural settings. Chances are you will envy the two polar bear cubs as they happily float in ice-cold water while you're chafing in the 90+ degree Tucson summer heat.

a humbly-sized zoo by Mary P. at InsiderPages

 by  Contributor  on  2007-11-26

Reid Park Zoo is small, but well maintained. And of course, because it's Tucson, you can go all year long and be comfortable.
