I was pleased with the attraction save for the live bear exhibit. It was clearly having anxiety and was pacing back and forth. I and other guests were not happy about this sad situation for this creature. Please change this!

Don't waste your money. It's a glorified bass pro that cost way too much money. And if you buy the conservation family pass with guest passes they will say it's unlimited use until you use it too many times and they revoke the passes. It's a complete joke.

We just went last weekend to both the wild life and aquarium. We had a great time and enjoyed both sections. Before going we did think it was a little pricey, but once there it was completly worth it. I do think they need more seating along the way for elderly/disabled people since it does take awhile to go through. Our 4 1/2 year old loved the aquarium, especially trying to touch the sting rays and the sections where she could craw under the fish tanks into the glass view bubble. The penguins were also a huge hit!! We... read more

This place was awesome except for one thing. They had 1 bear all by himself. It was obvious this poor creature was lonely and was having an anxiety issue. He or she (not sure which) was pacing back and forth in the same short area wearing the ground down. Made us sick!!! I would have given this place 5 stars if it hadn’t been for that.

Once you get in it, good luck getting out under 3 hours, it is a maze. Signs should be placed on the displays, no climbing, touching or banging your hands on the tanks and displays. Parents are not watching their children which makes a tragedy waiting to happen for a child climbing over and falling in a display. I worry about safety issues. Overall it was beautiful. A little overpriced. ....

Took our grandchildren this last weekend, the safari section had very poor lighting in some parts you could not see any of the stuffed animals. The aquarium was by far better and was fun for the grandchildren. The cost of admission was very high at 140.00 for the 4 of us. After living in Omaha and having the Henry Doorly Zoo to visit it's hard to compete with that.
