Saint Louis Zoo | March 9, 2024

Highlights from my visit to the Saint Louis Zoo on March 9, 2024.

Welcome to the historic Saint Louis Zoo. A park packed with an exceptional collection of animals, including a number of rarities. Malayan Sun Bear, Transcaspian Urial, Horned Guan, and two species of Puffins are a few of the animals making their first appearance on my channel! Our visit to Saint Louis begins in the River’s Edge, a 25-year-old attraction that still offers top notch modern viewing of Rhinos, Hippos, Elephants and more. After a quick stop in the Insectarium, we’ll see Penguins, Polar Bears, and Great Apes in The Wild. From there we’ll journey under the water with Seals and Sea Lions, before taking in the classic zoo buildings that adorn the Historic Hill, full of Birds, Reptiles, and Primates. Our final stop is the Red Rocks, home to Big Cats and one of the best collections of hoofed animals in the United States.
