Description:
WEST OF METRO TORONTO. First opened in 1969 with forty lions, this family-owned wildlife park has grown to include over a thousand animals. The animals roam freely in large habitats, and guests drive through safari-style. The park has a very successful captive breeding program, so you'll likely see some animal youngsters along the way. In addition, there's lots of other fun stuff to see and do, including Misumu Bay Wet Play area, Jungle Playground, animal demonstrations and performances, a train tour and a lake cruise. Safari Bus tours of the animal reserves are available for an additional fee. There are two full-service restaurants, several snack carts, and two gift shops in the park. |
