 The Zoo is a private institution at Gulf Breeze, Florida. It started as one individual's small collection, and has grown to a large group of animal-friendly exhibits. |
 This is a great place for kids - and older folks like us who act like kids. It's chock full of cute animals, as opposed to other zoos which specialize in rare animals. |
 See what I mean? Isn't he cute? |

The first exhibit sets the tone for much of The
Zoo. Small critters lead you to the feed dispenser. The
sound of a quarter in the dispenser summons a crowd. Click any photo to see the larger version. Right: A tiny deer nuzzles feed pellets from my hand. |

 I never knew turkeys could be so beautiful and homely at the same time. |
