Over 1300 animals call the Phoenix Zoo home, including 200 species that are considered to be endangered. Visitors can learn about the zoo’s participation in survival plans for 37 species which are facing extinction, as well as enjoy the less serious events hosted throughout the year. Daily activities include camel rides, trips on a safari train, and the recent edition of a Koala exhibit gives visitors the chance to get up close and personal with these cuddly creatures. A range of restaurants serve everything from pizzas to Mexican food, and coffee shop is the perfect watering hole for humans.
