Zoo Ave: Cougars, Crocodiles & Macaws

Having loved animals of all kinds since I was a little girl, I'm drawn to places that guarantee wildlife sightings. Alajuela's Zoo Ave, or "Bird Zoo" is committed to conservation and animal education, and offers visitors a chance to view an amazing variety of Costa Rica's wildlife. Animal lovers are treated to more than 250 kinds of animals -- 120 bird species give the zoo its name -- and can rest easy knowing that all zoo proceeds go toward animal care and other worthwhile projects, including macaw conservation and breeding.
