The highlight of the day was visiting the bird show and then the snake demonstration. It snowed that day and this was something to do indoors with the kids. They liked the big snakes.

Loved it

I love reptiles and really all animals. Wanted to see if it was worth it! I was not disappointed! They have a huge number of displays and the staff was very friendly and knowledgeable! I ran my battery down on my phone taking pictures! The gardens are beautiful and well kept! I would go again!!

Don't miss this stop when in the Black Hills
