Is Oakland Zoo Dying?

For Mother’s Day we visited Oakland Zoo.

And was actually disappointed with the condition of the zoo.

My last visit to Oakland Zoo was about 3 years back when we had bought a yearly membership.

The zoo was better  maintained then.

However this time we found that not only the number of animals had decreased, but also health of animals seemed very poor.

Probably city does not have enough funds to maintain the zoo. No wonder we keep seeing Groupons and other deals for one-year membership.

But whatever said and done, animals seemed to suffer.

Probably must try San Francisco Zoo next time.

Also not bad is Six Flags, Discovery Kingdom in Vallejo. It has animals, Dolphin and Sea lion shows plus the rides.
