Zoo Miami

Zoo Miami houses more than 2,000 wild animals in a cageless environment that gives the animals' similar settings to their natural habitats and gives the visitor the feeling of embarking on an international safari. Large, open-air exhibits allow visitors to enjoy endangered wildlife at a safe yet close range. With nearly 340 developed acres out of 740-acres, this is the only zoo in the continental United States located in a subtropical climate.

In addition to the animals the Zoo also contains many tropical plants and trees, and a large collection of orchids.
