Detroit Zoo

We visited the Detroit Zoo in Royal Oaks, Michigan in the Fall of 2018. It is a large zoo, but does have fewer species than many other zoos its size. However, they do have many unusual animals here especially the Giant Japanese Salamander that you can not see if most other zoos so I would rate it as an 8 among large zoos. I think it is well worth a trip to the Detroit area just to see the zoo.
