Knoxville Zoo

We knew from our summer visit here that the Knoxville Zoo was a "must do" on the list, so we are now official members. The membership paid for itself if we went to the Zoo twice, and so far we've been 5 times, so it was definitely a good decision! Maddie loves it and always asks to go to the Zoon!!

During our first trip there, we never made it to the Kid's Cove, so we were excited to find goats and sheep that you could brush, turkeys, bunnies, a big slide and "mountains" to climb.

I also have to give the Knoxville Zoo a double thumbs up in the cool department because a lot of the exhibits have these tunnels that look like logs, so you can go "into" the animals habitat. This one is for the praire dogs....

And this giant one is for the bears. They even put snacks down at the end to try to lure the bears close to the window. So far, we've not gotten close though. They are usually climbing on top of the tunnel when we're inside. It's still cool, though!
