Hey all!


Today, we are at the Detroit Zoo to take you on a tour of some of the incredible exhibits they have to offer. Over the years, the zoo has gone through extensive refurbishments, elevating the experience for every visitor—including the state-of-the-art Penguin Conservation Center, the charming Red Panda habitat, and most recently, the Discovery Trails area. This new space features a massive playground for kids with engaging, interactive elements and even a stingray touch tank where you can get up close and personal with these amazing creatures. So, join us as we embark on this wild adventure!
