点评:The Potter Park Zoo located in Lansing, Michigan, is a nice zoo to visit. It is located in a beautiful area with a wonderful park outside of the zoo for you to enjoy before or after visiting the zoo. The zoo is older and some of the enclosures still represent the original structures, but you can tell they have done a lot of work to the zoo to make the enclosures better for the animals. They have a wonderful gift shop and the day we were there a peacock welcomed us at the door as he roamed around the zoo. I especially enjoyed the Arctic Fox exhibit as they are animals I don't think I have seen very often at other zoo's. They have a nice variety of animals from a snow leopard to red panda's, two of my favorite animals! I also loved the Elk exhibit and the very impressive antlers of their male Elk. The exhibit was very large and beautiful surrounded by trees and a large pond and also not animals I see often at zoo's which makes it even more exciting. There is a barnyard area with goats and cows for the children to explore which was very nice. The zoo was especially beautiful with the fall colors of October, a great time to explore the zoo with cooler weather as well. They have a small restaurant where you can have lunch with a nice menu. The zoo is on the smaller side but still well maintained and enjoyable to visit, I would recommend a trip if you are in the Lansing area.
