No wonder it is also called a 'living museum', the Oklahoma City Zoo has a wide variety of animals, like rhinos, white leopards, lions and so on. Only elephants can't be seen, but we heard they were relocated to Tulsa in the hope to mate with a male and have baby elephants.

The Butterfly Garden and the Aquatic Center were the most colorful of all, but I also liked the Cat Forest (Lion Overlook).

There are child-friendly areas enacted too, where kids can pet and feed the animals, play and just have a great time. I believe this Zoo is just great, fun and educational. I can only recommend it!

Oklahoma City History

The Ups And Downs Of The Barren Land!  It is quite odd to recollect that Oklahoma City was not considered to be the capital of the state in the earlier days, as it had come up quite later.

Individuals must be well aware about the mighty American Native relocation to the Oklahoma region during the [...]
