One of the best city zoo's in the US, but unfortunately, they need to do some major cleaning up. I took my whole family a month ago and was very unsatisfied with the lack of cleanliness throughout the zoo's restrooms and all around walking areas. I understand the construction in progress at this time, and honestly, that wasn't the problem. The problem was the filth throughout the entire park. It was so bad that we tried to sit and have a pleasant snack at one of the many concession stands and were mobbed by hordes of bees that were all around the trash bins and our picnic tables so we had to leave.

Love the zoo

Although we've been to both the Ft Worth and Dallas zoos many times, the Ft Worth zoo is the clear winner between the two. It is a great way to spend the day with the family. We usually go every year on the day after Thanksgiving, but go early since a lot of other people have the same idea. Also, they close early on Sundays, so be aware of that.

AWESOME ZOO!

The Ft. Worth Zoo has gotten a ton of accolades over the past decade and rightfully so. It's an absolutely wonderful zoo and a place you have to go. Head out with family or friends (or both!) and enjoy the day.

Clean, Lots of Cool Animals

We've been to many zoos, and Ft. Worth Zoo is tops. Texas Wild with native Texas plants, animals and settings is wonderful. A train and merry-go-round ride adds more activity for the little ones. The dinosaur displays currently out fascinated our 5- to 8-year-olds on a field trip this summer. Don't miss feeding the birds from bird-seed sticks.

Great experience.

We have gone once or twice a year for the last five. They are constantly adding new exhibits so there always seems to be something fresh to explore.
