I tried to justify this waste of money by telling myself it helps the animals. In comparison, we could have all gone to the Columbus Zoo for a day and spent less money in admission. With the 2 extra cups of food we bought we spent almost $80 TOTAL (there were three of us). Even stopping to feed the animals, we went through the whole drive - TWICE - in less than 45 minutes.

The few "exotic" animals we saw, like the zebras, were relatively far away, separated by a wired fence. I didn't need to drive 90 miles to see that - I could have gone to the local petting zoo. Be that as it may, but the vast majority of animals we saw were different types of deer, alpacas and llamas. We were told there were over 400 animals. Do the owners really think that a family with a bunch of kids in the car are going to get by with just ONE cup of food? Truly, at this price EVERYONE who paid admission should get a cup if he or she wants it. You get one cup of food for the whole car (why wouldn't everyone get one when we are all charged individual admission?) and you have to buy more for $5 each. But even at this reduced price, I felt enormously ripped off. In the off-season, the walk-through safari is closed (which we knew) and we also knew the giraffes probably wouldn't be able to be seen. The per person price of $22.95 for the off season (compared to the regular $29.95 charge) is ridiculous. Retrieved 16 February 2010.A total waste of money.
