Occuping more than 200 acres of Swope Park and housing nearly 1,000 animals, the Kansas City Zoo, Missouri, has evolved beyond the wildest dreams of its founders. The zoo serves as a hub for thousands to come together to learn about and work toward a better environment for animals and humans. Features like the children's zoo and Monkey Island offer visitors the opportunity to explore entire continents and immerse themselves in the animals' natural habitats.
