There's nothing new about a zoo, but animal lovers from Madison apartments will find something very unique about their local Henry Vilas Zoo: they can visit all they like, and never have to pay a sent. Considered one of the best free places for family to have fun in the entire city, the Henry Vilas Zoo is a fully functional zoo, full of every animal a curious person living in
a Madison apartment would want to see, but without the high price of admission. This is especially a treat for those with apartments near the Henry Vilas Zoo, since they can come down and take a gander at their favorite animal friends without having to spend a dime.

Just because the zoo is free, it doesn't mean that they skimp on the amount of animals. Visitors from Madison apartments will find just as many, if not more creatures and exhibits in this zoo as you would at most zoos around the nation. With so many animals on display, it can be difficult to know where to begin, but there a few spots you simply have to explore. You start you zoological journey in the Explore the Primates exhibit, which gives you a look at all your favorite apes and monkeys, and then takes you on to the Big Cat Complex, full of African lions, ferocious tigers, and many more. Other animals you can discover include animals of the outback such as kangaroos and wallabies, North American animals such as bison, bears, and more animals in our own backyard. One area that anyone with children must visit, whether they come from across the city or right down the road from an apartment near the Henry Vilas Zoo, is the Children's Zoo, an area full of interesting and adorable beasts such as the red panda, porcupines, goats and meerkats.

If you're an animal fan living in a Madison apartment, you should definitely give this zoo a visit, especially if you live in an apartment near the Henry Vilas Zoo. You'll get to explore all the unique wonders the Animal Kingdom has to offer, and it won't cost you more than the price of gas to get there.
