One of the main highlights of New Orleans is a fun day at the Audubon Zoo.
The Spanish-moss-draped environment re-creates a gator-infested marsh, complete with fat catfish; giant, ratlike nutria; and extremely rare white alligators. Also at home in the zoo, located within the Crescent City’s vast Frederick Law Olmsted-designed urban oasis: Bengal tigers, Malayan sun bears, Komodo dragons and a baby rhino named Satchmo.
Audubon Zoo site writes: “In addition to the amazing animals, exhibits, live animal presentations and hands-on animal encounters you can ride the Endangered Species Carousel, Simulator and Swamp Train. You can also shop in our fabulous Audubon Marketplace gift shop!”
