We are fortunate to have the Virginia Zoo in Norfolk. It is a great place to visit with or without the family. You can check out the animal families there too. The new arrivals (like the recently born Red Panda cubs) are listed on the web site. You can even adopt some of the animals. The Zoodoptions make great birthday or holiday gifts. The Zoo also allows private events and functions.
Some of my favorite animals are the Red Pandas, Masai Giraffes, African Elephants and tiny Blue Duiker.
Upcoming Events
