Minnesota Zoo Full Tour - Apple Valley, Minnesota - Part One

The Minnesota Zoo (formerly the Minnesota Zoological Garden) is an AZA-accredited zoo in Apple Valley, Minnesota. It is one of two state-supported zoos in the United States, with the other being the North Carolina Zoo. When it opened on May 22, 1978, it was fairly revolutionary in its exhibit design. The zoo, built in a suburbanizing rural area, had more space to house exhibits and was one of the first zoos to organize its animals by their living environment as opposed to their species.

Exhibits and attractions.
Exhibits are arrayed in six themed areas, including three themed walking trails ranging from one mile (1.6 kilometers) to two miles (3.2 kilometers) in length:

Medtronic Minnesota Trail, featuring animals native to Minnesota

Northern Trail, featuring animals of the north (above the 45th parallel north)

Tropics Trail, an indoor walking trail featuring animals from the tropics

Discovery Bay, an activity area themed around marine wildlife

Russia's Grizzly Coast, a part-indoor, part-outdoor new multi-million exhibit featuring animals from Russia's Far East and the Kamchatka Peninsula.

Wells Fargo Family Farm, themed around farm animals
