Carousel is very fun. Got to see cute cats when we went. Nice little park for kids, and ropes coarse as well. Overall, 10/10 Took lots of pictures. Met an adorable kitten in the cat adoption center, who slept on my lap. Amazing.

Such a great zoo! Visiting from Tampa, FL and had to stop in with my son. It was great to see so many animals that we don't get to see at our zoo back home. It was a really hot day so I think some of the animals were kept inside and I wish some of the others would have had something to cool them down because the heat seemed to be affecting some of them as well. Loved their cat adoption facility and though this was a great idea that many other zoos should do as well!

Nice size zoo. It’s a little hot in June (what else is new…) but there is plenty of shade. We saw quite a few animals including the Red River Hog which was new to us. Make time for the special activities (including the giraffe feeding which is only $3) Great place to spend a couple of hours.

The El Paso Zoo is a fun place for kids and adults. New exhibits are being worked on. It could use some sprucing up in places. Some equipment was showing its age and needs replaced. The animals were well taken care of and appeared in their enclosures as at some larger zoos I've visited. Families were enjoying the place getting wet in the fountain pad area. Also many were boarding the miniature train that circled the zoo. We spent 2 hours roaming around.

Pretty neat zoo, has a lot of animals that you don't see elsewhere, like owls and these super small cute monkeys. Went during the winter freeze, so there were practically zero people. The elephants and giraffes don't come out during cold weather, but we did see the tiger and seal. Tickets are $14 for adults.
