Neat Things In Our Backyard: Brevard Zoo
The Brevard Zoo is located in Brevard County at
8225 N. Wickham Road in Melbourne, FL
It is only about an hours drive from Orlando, it has many interesting animals and is an affordable option for an activity to do with the whole family. If you have an annual membership at the Central Florida Zoo, the reciprocal agreement between the two zoos allow you for 50% off the ticket price at Brevard Zoo.
Recently we took a trip with the twins to the Zoo and we wanted to share the fun with our readers. Here is our trip in pictures from the Zoo.
Laura and Kathryn try out grooming a goat at the Petting Zoo
At the petting zoo, Laura and Kathryn try to talk to the Alpaca's which they kept calling Llama's. They also petted their necks and hugged the Alpaca's.
When the girls saw this Hyacinth Macaw, they instantly thought of Blu, a Blue Macaw from the movie Rio
The Kangaroo found in the Australia/Asia exhibit is munching on it's food.
As the day wears on Laura gets a little tired and wants to be carried, but she is still excited to see animals and eagerly points them out as she is carried by Justin.
In the Africa exhibit we marvel at the White Rhinoceros as he bathes in his water pit. We were looking for the Giraffes, but the day was warm and they wander around. We will use that excuse to go back sometime soon. We had such a great time and hope that you will check out the Brevard Zoo sometime in the future as well.
