San Francisco Zoo

A large zoo with all the animals you'd expect, and then some. Some of the highlight exhibits are the African area (where you'll see many African animals living together in the same exhibit), a primate center, a children's zoo, and a family farm (a large petting zoo), but there's plenty more, along with events like wildlife shows. A flock of free-roaming peacocks also inhabits the zoo, outside of the enclosures.
