Pros: beautiful area; helpful staff; extremely clean Cons: may be difficult to find
We took my son to the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo for the first time a few weeks ago. Just not an animal lover, he was not impressed. I, on the other hand, am always impressed by this zoo. Having been there many times on work field trips, I can never...
Pros: A very large zoo with a great selection of animals. Cons: None that I have ever found!
I go to the Cleveland Metro Park Zoo at least once a year. This is the largest zoo that I have been to. It is actually 2 parts: the rain forest and the main zoo.

Pros: Always something new and plenty of free parking. Very interactive. Cons: Stay away on free to Cuyahoga residents day!
Having been a zoo member for several years, we go to this zoo at least once a month. Is it the best zoo in Ohio? No, I'm afraid I would have to give that honour to Columbus or Cincinati, however, as it is only a 30-40 minute drive depending on traffic ...
Pros: The animals, the food service, the staff, VERY CLEAN!!! Cons: the terrain of the Zoo, the hills, and the huge layout of the place.
My trip to the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo was fun, but I will say this to everyone that plans to visit this Zoo, you better be phyiscally fit or you are going to pay dearly. The animal exhibits were in abundance. I had a great time learning about ...
