The ZOO

The Omaha zoo is the coolest. They have a HUGE desert dome. You get to walk around as if you're in the different deserts in the world. Some of the animals are just walking around with you (mostly birds). Underground they have a nocturnal and swamp exhibit. In the swamp all that separates you from the crocodiles is three feet, a net, and a railing. Super cool.

They also have a jungle exhibit. Same concept as the desert one (except giant bats instead of just birds flying around). The monkeys just swing from trees right in front of your face. No net, no fence and no glass. They could jump on you if they wanted. The Sloth in this picture is about two feet from Lincoln. I think he wanted to pet it.

This Jaguar did not like Lincoln. He kept circling and hissing!
The rain forest bridge. There's a waterfall on the one side.
