Buenos Aires Zoo

Buenos Aires Zoo, Palermo

 
The Buenos Aires Zoo may not be the world’s largest zoological garden nor boast American-style shows (Yes, there is a seal show!) yet it is great place to spend an afternoon. Not only is this 45-acre zoo home to 350 species of animals, it is possible to feed many of them. Tykes tired of touring will delight in this diversion.
