Love this place, it was so cool seeing the animals! It literally feels like an actual desert with real and exotic plants and animals. This is by far the best zoo I’ve ever been to. It is so massive and has SO many animals, I love it! Reptiles, mammals, birds, fish, amphibians, everything!!!! Awesome! Klipspringers are very cool when they jump. Meerkats are cute, snakes are awesome, and the rattlesnake was so cool! It was so good I can’t even describe it!!
What we have a zoo! Wow nextdoor is that rosenblatt place. In my opinion its the best in the world, just my opinion. Been to San Diego ok great also, but Omaha zoo is my favorite place. Get a membership even if you cant goo every week.
You can see this dome before you see the rest of the zoo. It took so long for them to put this together originally. Imported sand from 3 major deserts. Birds get to fly around and nest openly in this dome. Try to spot a hummingbird! The nocturnal exhibit is also incredible. Take a few minutes to let your eyes adjust to the dark.
Loved the zoo. Takes a long time to see all the animals tho. Overall, i would come back
Very cool. It is not just a desert experience. Below creatures of the night are displayed. Fun time. Give it a go if you are from out of town.
OTHER. WORDLY. Ive been to some awesome zoos. But nothing compares to stepping into a LITERAL DESERT BIODOME WITH JAVALENAS AND ROAD RUNNERS running amok. I feel like a crazy person describing the experience here because of how sci fi futuristic this place is for creating the controlled climate environment.
Awesome nocturnal and desert exhibits with so many exotic animals from around the world!
Interesting set-up. Not really sure if having a huge mountain take up the center of the dome is really a good idea; the space could have been better used by including more species or give more space to the animals already present. The creatures of the night exhibit is also great, plenty of nocturnal animals. The albino gator was amazing.
Incredibly beautiful wildlife immersion type experience. Its felt like a quick walk through a desert biome with plenty of animals to see. Obviously, guests should stay on the walking paths but be sure to take a good look at the plants and faux rock formations! Architectural and natural beauty combined.
Always one of the most popular buildings with my kids. Good mix of animals you might encounter in your state (turtles, frogs, and beavers) with some that most people might not (alligators and caymans). The desert dome can be pretty hot in the Summer but its a dry heat. ;o)
The zoo is awesome. My grandchildren love this exhibit, but for me this exhibit is still in my top ten, but like number 9 or 10. Still in the winter time this is a nice place go thaw out.
There is an overwhelming smell of bat guano upon entering. Some habitats seem too small for the animals housed in them.
I visited this exhibit with family and they left fairly quickly because of the smell, although I didnt mind it so much.One might expect the desert dome to be very hot, but it was very mild.There were diverse species and not all hidden away as they have been before.
The desert dome is truly a wonder. Travel some of the great deserts all in one place. Great fun for the family.
Very cool. It is not just a desert experience. Below creatures of the night are displayed. Fun time. Give it a go if you are from out of town.
Amazing zoo with so many species and great interior design that helps to get emerged
One of our favorite places at the zoo to visit!
Great way to both see and feel the environment and natural habitat for these animals.
Very interesting and must watch place. Kingdom of Nights was specially very good.
Great habitat with a variety of animals. I always love the nocturnal animals on the bottom level.
The Kingdoms of the night is an awesome exhibit. If you go during the Halloween Spooktactular events then they have the lights on. They are simulating day time for the nocturnal animals.
They feed the bats at 4 pm, the temp really drops, be careful not to move too much as the bats will try to avoid you and end up crashing into you.
This is one of my favorite stops in the zoo.
The place is designed and built very well. The dark area is stinky though but cant help it. You will not mind the smell after checking out the animals in this section.
Amazing. The diversity of animals, anf the maintenance and care taking of the animals is impeccable!
Great educational visit....my kids loved the creatures of the night part!
This is one of our favorite attractions at this zoo!
A classic Henry Doorly experience, always a great jaunt through desert biomes.
Kingdom of the night is the best
Awesome experience. A must see.
My favorite exhibit.Great information and the deserts are awesome
Fun look into another world.
You truly feel like in the dessert!
