First off, even the name "Greater Vancouver" Zoo is a bit of a misnomer since it is waaaaayyyyyyy out in Aldergrove, but I digress.
The Nielsen clan trekked out the GVZoo on Monday despite a few misgivings I have/had about zoos in general and this zoo in particular (some controversy over the treatment of animals etc). Nonetheless, I was pleasantly surprised to see that the animals do roam in "acreages" as opposed to cages, and there has been attempts made to socialize the animals and provide a comfortable habitat for all. The zoo lacks a little bit of ambiance in general and could use more information about the animals but ah well.
Jasper loved the train ride - for an extra 5 bucks its well worth it. As well, we hopped on a free bus tour of the bear and wolf enclosure which was pretty cool too.
