How would you like to visit a rainforest, explore the bottom of an ocean and still be home in time for dinner? Well, if you live in Omaha, USA, you can! The Henry Doorly Zoo in Omaha is like no other zoo. There are many of wild and endangered animals here but they live in an environment exactly to their own.
The zoo includes the world's largest indoor rainforest, known as the Lied Jungle. You can cross rope bridges, walk through caves and admire wonderful waterfalls. Leopards and pythons move through the bushes, monkeys jump from tree to tree and birds fly above your head. The zoo is home of many species including bears, giraffes, deer, jaguars, and pumas.
Next to the Lied Jungle is the Kingdom of the Seas Aquarium. Here you can see penguins sliding off ice cliffs on the cold water below. Make a walk along the 25-metre glass tunel which runs through a big tank, with a wide variety of fish swimming around you.
The zoo is open everyday of the year except Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's Day.
