Wayne DTS at Toledo Zoo

            On Friday, May 10th, Wayne DTS made their way to the Toledo Zoo. At the zoo, we were able to see a lot of different types of animals and their habitats. The weather was beautiful that day, which made it even more enjoyable for the group.

    Upon entering the zoo, we followed a path that let us view some eagles. The next animals we saw were the elephants. The elephants have a new exhibit, which had opened up recently. While we were going through the zoo, close to the elephants, we came across two hippos. Apparently they were so comfortable they were catching some z’s in the water. We took our time getting to the reptile house, taking in the animals we saw on the way. Once in the reptile house we saw snakes and various other animals. When we were through the reptile house, we were able to see raccoons and monkeys. They both had newborn babies with them in the zoo.

    The weather outside was very nice. It was sweatshirt weather and it wasn’t raining either. It was overcast, so it was kind of cloudy that day, which kept the sun from shining on us and making it too hot out. The animals were active, since it wasn’t to hot out or to cold out for them.

    The zoo itself seemed to be well kept. It seemed to be clean, which is good because it lets you know that the animals are well taken care of. The zoo’s grounds were very well kept too. All the landscaping was appropriate for the animal that was being viewed. The zoo was also very handicapped accessible. The staff had no problems maneuvering multiple wheelchairs through the exhibits.

    All in all we ended up having a good time at the Toledo Zoo. Before leaving, we were able stop in the souvenir shop. A few clients were even able to purchase some goods at the store.  We were also able to have a good time at the zoo since the weather was nice which let all the animals be a little more active.
