What is the differance in the San Diego Zoo and the San Diego Wild Animal Park?

Which one of these parks is better for a 2year old (stroller will be in tow)? I want to go to both on our trip, but i think that will be too much for our son… we will be in southern ca for 6 days. Our 1st stop is disneyland, then we will travel to san diego and go to some of the attractions down there… im debating between Sea World, San Diego Zoo and the San Diego Wild Animal Park… What are your thoughts?

Go to the zoo. The Wild Animal Park is a valley that’s set up to look like an African plain, where the animals can roam around in a somewhat natural habitat. You could wander around for quite awhile at the Wild Animal Park and just see a bunch of native African species of shrubs or something like that, without seeing any animals. Also, someone mentioned the tram. They shut that down last year, because it was getting old and unreliable (it kept breaking down, stranding people in the middle of the park for hours).

The zoo is full of various exhibits that are packed together into a smaller park. It is hilly. But, you can start at the top and work your way to the bottom of the zoo, and then take a long escalator back up to the top. The zoo also has a petting zoo for kids, where they can harass … er … pet some barnyard animals. One thing, though: This year, the zoo stopped letting people bring in their own food (they want to make more money by selling their high-priced junk). So, expect to have to pay for food and drink.

Sea World has a bunch of ocean type of exhibits (pools of dolphins and stuff, as well as an enclosed aquarium building). But, mostly the big attraction is the shows. And, you spend a lot of time sitting in the sun waiting for and watching the next show, because the seating is uncovered. I think Sea World is better for kids aged 5 and older.

San Diego Zoo $54.86 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles The San Diego Zoo in Balboa Park, San Diego, California, is one of the largest and most progressive zoos in the world with over 4,000 animals of more than 800 species. It is also one of the few zoos in the world that houses the giant panda. It is privately operated by the nonprofit Zoological Society of San Diego on 107 acres (0.43 km2) of parkland leased from the City of San Diego, and ownership of all animals, equipment and other assets rests with the City of San Diego.he San Diego Zoo grew out of exotic animal exhibitions abandoned after the 1915 PanamaCalifornia Exposition. Dr. Harry M. Wegeforth founded the Zoological Society of San Diego, meeting October 2, 1916, and initially following precedents set by the New York Zoological Society. A permanent tract of land in Balboa Park was set aside in August 1921, and the zoo began to move in the following year. The publication ZooNooz commenced in early 1925.
