My hubby and I had a BLAST at Utah’s Hogle Zoo! When we got there we raced right over to check out the new Rocky Shores...
Rocky Shores is a new really awesome multi-animal
habitat! We watched
animals up-close as they swam through crystal
blue water. We also watched the animals play from ground level.
Rocky Shores is fascinating! We spent many hours there and even went back again at the end of our visit we loved it so much. The bears, sea lions, seals and otters are all brilliant. We adore Rizzo the new female polar bear, she is so beautiful! She was coming up from her afternoon swim to say hello to me in the pictures below...
Next... we headed to see the handsome tigers! I remember seeing them when they were brand new cubs back in 2009. One of them was waiting to play with me when I got there. I think he liked my tiger shirt :) He was like... stop taking pictures already and just play with me!

After all of this excitement my hubby (big kid) was ready for his afternoon snack...
Next we got to talk to a zoo volunteer about a snake, it was AWESOME! We even got to feel the snakes skin and get our pictures taken with it..yep I am a genuine mom of 3 boys :)
Wow there were so many cool animals at this zoo! We plan to go back again sometime soon to spend more time enjoying each one of them.
Up next for the Zoo will be the new Africa Savanna exhibit slated to open in 2014 and will feature giraffes, zebra, ostrich, gazelles and the return of lions to the Zoo's collection. Wow it's so impressive all the exciting things going on and also coming up soon!
My hubby and I really had a fantastic time together. Thank you so very much for everything Utah's Hogle Zoo! We look forward to coming back again soon as a family. The Zoo is open every day of the year except Christmas and New's Year Day. Make sure and plan a visit, it's an incredible experience that you will not want to miss!

I also remember the cubs wow they look so big now. And the baby elephant is very CUTE!!!
Can't wait to see the polar bear. Gotta go there soon thanks for telling my family all about it!
I had a great time at the Zoo. There are so many fun animals there. I think the new polar bear is my favorite. She would swim up to the glass and look at you, then swim off again. Oh ya that ice cream was pretty good too. :)
We buy a year membership every year and love to take the kids there often. Thanks for sharing the fun pictures and videos the kids and I watched them together and they keep saying play it again play it again :)
