I love how they have a Downy woodpecker. I love those little birds

Thanks for coming to Akron! This zoo is literally within a 5 minute drive of my apartment :-)

I can’t wait to see the new Wild Asia exhibit in Akron

Definitely one of the best enclosures for any kind of bear.

Every video puts you in the zoo. So well done, I want to visit them all!!

I personally love these types of exhibits, educating visitors about the native wildlife they may have never realized they had

I got in Akron's newspaper when this exhibit opened! My family went for the member preview and someone from the Beacon Journal snapped a pic of me going down the slide and looking into the water! This zoo and exhibit will always hold a place in my heart

Great video, I especially liked the native woodland bird aviary. My Dad were there once during a snow storm and were able to see most of the Zoo. We worked with the staff and got 2 videos and then had to leave for the drive back to Saint Louis. Love your videos, keep up the great work.

This reminds me of Minnesota's medtronic Minnesota trail an indoor and outdoor exhibit that introduces the public to many native species from grey wolves to wolverines You gotta appreciate zoos efforts to make make native species fun and educational, yet my grandmother doesn't like the idea of having native species in zoos. She would say "if I wanted to go to a zoo I want to see stuff I cannot find in my backyard" (Her zoo in Watertown NY has nothing but native species)

I’m surviving the winter by watching a bunch of zoo in summer videos and weird to see Wild Asia under construction. Not quite up to Grizzly ridge standards but still I like it - the gibbon enclosed especially is fun. Overall, Akron is my favorite small zoo. They get the most out of little land.

Very cool! Keep up the great work!

Wonderful video! As for the original inhabitant of the screech owl exhibit, I think it was a hawk. Maybe a red-tailed hawk. A porcupine might have been in the quail exhibit. Trying to remember. I need to look in my archive. It has been a couple years. The owls and quails are now those exhibits permanent inhabitants.

Thank you! Should've been more specific about the question, I meant to say "According to the original plans, what was supposed to be in the owl enclosure?"

I was just thinking this today, that top 25 list was mostly based my desire to visit each zoo at the time and their entertainment levels - rather than looking at each one objectively. Though it would/will jump spots in a future list, I still stand by my criticisms: the zoo can still be seen in about half an hour, most habitats are too small, Pride of Africa didn't wow me at all, and at the time the poor Tiger Valley was still fresh in my mind. The last one can no longer be criticized since it no longer exists. If I had to change it up, Zoo Knoxville and Newport Aquarium are my least favorite institutions.

Good to know information. From what you are saying it reminds me of the Sunset/David Traylor Zoos in Kansas.

The answer for this video's question: Turkeys.

I bet you don’t take requests, and it’s not a very popular zoo, but if you ever can , can you please visit the Oakland Zoo

Talk about the north Cali on zoo

Whoa! Try visiting the San Francisco Zoo soon cause' they have both Grizzly Gulch & Wolf Canyon! And maybe you could also visit the Monterey Bay Aquarium because they probably still have the Wild About Otters exhibits. Heaving Echinodon!🦉
