💬 What Visitors Say

💬Plan your meal before entering Serengeti Crossing, as food choices are very limited in this section of the zoo. Consider eating at other areas of Franklin Park Zoo or bringing snacks.
💡Head directly to the ostriches first—they are the most active and engaging animals in this section and tend to interact well with visitors for photos and observation.
💡Allow time to explore the porcupines and warthogs at the end of the section, as they are less crowded than the main exhibits and offer a more relaxed observation experience.
💡Be aware that ostriches can be more aggressive than other animals in the exhibit, so maintain appropriate distance and supervise children closely when viewing them.
