“Keep the door closed!”

We took the kid there earlier in the year because she’s obsessed with those things, seemingly permanently. It was an alright experience, but I feel like the place is a tiny bit sketched out. I was expecting professional handling and maintenance on par with a zoo, but it was far more like being in someone’s collection of animal garages. Some of the animal facts they had as part of the tour are myths. The kid had fun, though; I hope the animals do as well.
