Small, free rescue zoo on a shaded wildlife trail — great for close-up animal portraits (otters, alligators, owls, deer, tortoises, eagle) and intimate nature scenes. Easy walking trail, family-friendly, limited facilities. Best visited weekday mornings or late afternoon for softer light and fewer crowds; parking at the trailhead. Bring telephoto and patience; some enclosures are being renovated so sightings vary.
