I didn't make it to the zoo but I did visit the "Wild Animal Park' last year. It was fairly crowded but still a pretty good experience.
I went to some place in So. Cal. with "Safari" in the name (Safari Land or Safari World - I forget) back in the 60's. There was one other family there and no one else. There were no animals either tho. We paid like $15 a ticket (that's like $60 these days) for a ride around a loop in a BIG field in an International with zebra stripes painted on the side of it - with no air conditioning. We didn't even see a sparrow - seriously.
I know they're not like that these days and have people that actually know when to do the tours and how to manage the animals but I thought I would relate that little story.
