We think San Diego might take the grand prize for best city to live in if you’re an animal lover!
Even if you can’t make it to one of the top 5 zoos this year, show your nearest zoological park some love and plan a day to visit. We promise you’ll learn a lot, be inspired and have an overall great time!
Oh, and Happy National Zoo Lovers Day!
