For those who know the zoo well, let everyone else know what secrets, tips, and other animal features I missed!

As a Texas resident I'm so glad you loved the houston zoo! It's definitely one of my favorites. To add to your points about the zoo changing currently from what I've heard the zoo plans to renovate the world of primates after they finish the new birds of the world Expansion next year. President of the Zoo, Lee Ehmke has also hinted various times that the next project will be focusing on the section called Asian Islands. This will give the Tiger, Siamang, White-cheeked Gibbon, Clouded Leopard, and Orangutan all new homes as well as a new outdoor home for Small clawed otters. They also plan on giving the Asian Elephants even more space with the future Asia renovations. After that though it gets a little bit more unknown but they have talked about finishing the African Forest and also making a much larger and greater Africa exhibit for their lions, cheetahs, Painted dogs and more. As well as possibly turning the Carruth Natural Encounters into a dedicated Madagascar section with new species of bats and also moving the fossa over. Other possibly future projects include turning the children's zoo into a more dedicated Texas exhibit, adding a second entrance and building a new reptile house. The Houston Zoo has been working constantly to improve the zoo and with how amazing their past 3 exhibits were with Texas Wetlands, The Pantanal and Galapagos Islands I have total faith they will knock all the future exhibits out of the park!

I liked the use of the maps in the video. It does help to visualize the location of the exhibits and zoo maps are also part of my zoo nerdig culture!

I'm from Houston. Been coming to this zoo for years, my whole life. This is by far my favorite zoo and it's only gonna keep improving. Hopefully the zoo can finish their whole master plan. I'm most excited for the Madagascar section they plan

Fun fact: The reticulated Python exhibit was actually once home to the famous albino alligator Blanco which is now a crocodile encounter in Arlington TX.

Thanks since i live in houston myself

Oooh been waiting for this! This is my hometown and I'm happy to see you back

Before you visit the Houston Zoo, this video is a must-watch! It's a fantastic guide that offers a sneak peek into the incredible world of wildlife waiting for you there. The Houston Zoo's dedication to conservation and education is truly inspiring, making every visit an opportunity to connect with and learn about our planet's diverse creatures. Have you had a memorable experience at the Houston Zoo? Share your favorite animal encounter! 🦁🦍🦜

Galápagos Islands video on the way I can feel it 👀👀👀

THIS IS GREAT==U DO A VERY NICE TOUR AND A GREAT JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gotta check out this zoo. Especially for those mixed-species habitats. Gorillas and hogs? Very cool!

Another Texas zoo that you should check out is the Fort Worth Zoo! I've gone there since I was a kid

Love my zoo. I’d add to please look at the keeper chat timings at the front when you walk in. You can plan your walk around with those in mind since keepers will educate and feed animals while you visit. This is great for kids that want to see the animals be active.

You should visit the Fresno Chaffee Zoo. It has made some very impressive upgrades the past few years.

The Waco Zoo is another great zoo in Texas! Living in Austin it’s a close option that the kids love!

I am glad Hermann Park is getting improved parking areas as part of there master plan.

i watched this after i went to the houston zoo will i die?

Ooh my gosh that's amazing I wish I could be there Me I am working park

Fun fact: the reason why the all indoor Red Panda enclosure is so inadequate and strange is because it was originally designed for a wombat. It later exhibited an aardvark, two ocelots, and finally the red pandas.

I hope you do the Dallas Zoo next

The jaguars look like they’re worth the price of admission on their own. Hoping to tour Texas sooner rather than later.

6:51 the and more exhibit is pretty popular with the guests

can you do a watch this before you visit the brookfield zoo video please?

Also remember you get discounted tickets if you have a lone star card😊

This zoo is probably two AZA Exhibit awards away from being the best zoo in the US.

Well yippee-kayay! Zak, try to visit Bearizona & the Woodland Park Zoo sooner or later! And here are just 2 zoo trivia questions for you & your girlfriend.... 1) How many years ago did the Woodland Park Zoo originally house elephants before they moved away? 2) What year did the Steinhart Aquarium at the California Academy Of Sciences originally had the Fish Roundabout Tank?

Could you do one for The National Zoo?

Primates! Yess

Anyone here for Planet Zoo inspiration, most notably the Carruth's Natural Encounters?

You need to go to San Antonio zoo

This is my #6 out of 38, although I find the giraffe exhibit sad

i could swear that the zebra was with the giraffe in the african forest, but the map says otherwise

Herman Park is the most beautiful park you have seen? So you have never been to State parks, National Parks, wilderness parks, wildlife management Parks, etc... That's very sad. You need to get away from the city and explore the world.
