Say hi to Myrtle, the 550 lb Sea Turtle swimming around in the Giant Ocean Tank. If you can, watch a feeding. She likes Brussel Sprouts!
The Zoo was founded in 1916 by a local doctor, Harry Wegeforth, who decided to build a zoo after hearing lions left over from the Panama-California Exposition roaring in their cages in the park.
Go check out the night shows, including RipTide. Also, this is great for kids on a hot day. Lots of water!
