What do you do when it’s 50 degrees in the Winter? We typically get out at and enjoy the fresh air. This particular day we decided to go to the zoo. Sedgwick County Zoo (SCZ) is in our opinion one of the best zoos in America. With that being said, we have been to the Columbus Zoo, which was run by Jungle Jack Hanna.

SCZ is not just for families with kids. Adults have things they can enjoy while there as well: sign reading for interesting facts, pretty trails to explore, adult beverages with friends, cool picture spots, and not to mention adorable animal watching. (We will cover food later.)


Chris and Emily both enjoy any of the cat exhibits. Chris is typically the photographer while at the zoo as Emily is trying to talk to all the animals like Doctor Dolittle.


The one thing SCZ could work on is their food. While they have upgraded The Beastro their prices appear to be paying for the upgrade. Pictured below is the meal we split. $20 total for a mediocre pizza, two bags of $3 a bag chips, and a dry brownie.

Check out their website for Covid protocols and visiting information.
PSA: We did wear our masks when we were in the buildings, per SCZ policy.
