    I flew to Nebraska from Akron last year just go to the zoo and can honestly say kingdoms of the night was my favorite exhibit out of any zoo and so unfortunate that it's closed as some one who has flown all over the country to go to zoos kingdom of the night is my favorite exhibit!!

    Surprised they don't have ring-tailed cats or cacomistles in this exhibit. That would be great to see. Definitely now on my list of must see zoos when I eventually do a North American zoo trip

    If yes, here are some i've been to i'd recommend:
    Chester Zoo
    Twycross Zoo
    Bristol Zoo
    Peak Wildlife Park
    West Midland Safari Park (in america safari parks are called drive thru safaris)
    Knowsley Safari Park
    Woburn Safari Park

    This exhibit has always seemed really cool to me and I am happy I can finally watch an amazing tour of the place!
    I wish indoor deserts were more common because they look amazing! I'm happy to have another amazing indoor desert in my country, in Burgers Zoo. I think it might even rival this one in area size (excluding KotN), although the exterior of the building doesn't look as impressive as this huge dome.
    Can't wait to see more of Omaha on the channel, great work!

      @@hailgiratinathetruegod7564 I haven't seen the desert dome in person, but from what I saw in the video, the environments look amazing in the dome, especially like when walking between cliffs. Burger's also looks great in this aspect, plus I agree that Burger's Desert has better exhibits. It's way cooler seeing the Bighorns climbing on their rock in this open dessert, looking at rattlesnakes and seeing the Paccaris walking around in the background and seeing the vultures above you on the rocks. So yeah, I think I do also prefer Burger's.

    Luckily I live in Nebraska so I have gone to the Henry Doorly Zoo many times. It always gets better every time that I go. I always go in the summer, so it is really hot outside. Luckily they have misting stations every so often to cool you off. I am biased, but I believe it is the best zoo in America. Everybody should go at least once in their life.

  • @TheMrFunny11
    @TheMrFunny11 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I understand the price of these deserts, but more zoo should make them. In one of your previous vids you showed us the the roo valley. I really think a small desert dome or maybe a bigger one would cost the same and it would draw much more guests and have more animals. Like if you agree

      I completely agree with you on that because I mean like it would be awesome for guests to see animals of the Sahara desert the gobi and the thar and the Mohave because out in the thar desert lives asiatic wildcat and up in the gobi live gerbils and Bactrian camels and in the Mojave live the desert tortoises and desert bighorn sheep and carnivores like the swift fox and scavengers like California condor and in the gobi the main carnivore is snow leopard and they live there because the gobi desert is cold and scavengers like the Himalayan griffin vultures live but in the thar desert live Indian gazelle and Indian wild ass which is a wild donkey and carnivores like the white footed fox and scavengers like the lagger falcon while the Sahara has carnivores like the fennec fox pale fox and ruppells fox herbivores like dama gazelle rhim gazelle addax dorcas gazelle and hyrax and bigger carnivores like the Northwest and northeast African cheetah and the African wild dog small herbivores like Jerboa and scavengers like spotted hyena

      I found one source with the answer. I assume in Omaha's case, this is a marketing thing. Cincinnati falsely claims to be the country's second zoo, Houston thinks they have the biggest gorilla complex, and though it's not their fault, people still think Georgia has the largest aquarium. Hint: this indoor Desert is on the other side of the world.
