Whoa, let’s not make this thread into a war about evolution with personal insults being tossed back and forth. I believe the subject has been covered extensively elsewhere, so we pretty much already know where everyone stands.
Yes, the Baltimore Zoo is great. I was there several times as a child. The aquarium in Baltimore is also well maintained and the variety of sea creatures there is astounding. I no longer go to zoos, aquariums, circuses etc. on principle, but I still remember those two as holding my attention for long spans of time. I also know secondhand that the zoo in Yerushalayim is amazing. I live so close to the zoo that I can sometimes hear the animals at night (no danger of revealing my identity; there are hundreds of teenagers living in my building!) One of my friends volunteers twice a week with the birds; she loves it. If you’re going to go to a zoo, that’s the place to be.
