The children laughing is Wonderful and says it all. Love and all good blessings to you and your family. And thank you for saving the worm 🪱 ✨️🙏☝️✨️
Thanks for sharing, Tom! That caiman lizard habitat is very nice.
Yes it was, who ever is the setup person they are true artists.
Thank you for this thorough tour. I do appreciate it. It's been a very long time since I've been to the Caldwell Zoo, and I enjoyed the virtual trip.
I am very happy yiu enjoyed my tour. I truly enjoy visiting the different zoo's. Sharing them with other's just adds to my enjoyment.
I just went 2 the Milwaukee County Zoo and NEW Zoo in Wisconsin I highly suggest you go 2 these places nxt. Roadtrip
Thank You for the suggestions, I'll add them to my list 😊
My family enjoys watching the tours,Tom...your persistence and attention to detail is just like being there! Thank you for all that you do,we appreciate you!! My personal faves are always the primates...they're usually the loudest,most active bunch lol I laughed when you said you were craving chee-tos while watching the cheetah. 😂
That's great that you watch my videos with your family. I try my best to show everything so my viewers will enjoy their virtual tours. Primates are fun to watch, especially the youngsters 😁 Thanks for laughing at my goofy joke.
Those are called Alagoas Curassow, it's a glossy black bird from the Northeastern Brazil, South America. Kind of knowledge Really.
Thank You for identifying those birds. They were really cool looking birds, first time seeing them.
Another wonderful zoo!! thanks for sharing tom ill put it on my bucket list!😁😁❤️❤️
Very nice, It's a great zoo to visit. Glad you enjoyed 😊
Great video, as usual.
Thank You, glad you enjoyed 😊
Another beautiful zoo!!!
It was a fantastic zoo, very enjoyable visit.
@@TomsRoadTrippin Glad u did!
I thnk the cheetas are separate because they are babies.. well, they are juvenile in fact, we can recognize that because theyare more fluffy :D (you can alsosee the difference of size when the adult one pass behind them.)
oh you can actually have a sneak view of the ostrich ! it's at 52:38, if you look in the background behind the zebra, you can see a female ostrich bottom and legs standing. (almost just between the zebras). Ostrich was here but didn't wanted to be on camera probably XD
That's a nice zoo, it's not a big zoo in term of animals, but the habitats are very big sometime and there is plenty of different animals. Considering the price, i think it's a very good zoo to visit :D
Separating the cheetah seems the likely reason, didn't even think of that. I saw the ostrich behind the trees, thank You for the time stamp. Overall it's a really nice zoo with a great selection of animals in natural habitats. Glad you enjoyed my tour 😊
Thanks for this video. I had not yet heard of this zoo before.
Overall, I have to say I think the zoo does a really good job here. They prove you don't need to invest millions to build good animal enclosures. Of course the zoo was helped by the natural scenery which they put to good use. In my opinion, the zoo excels by not trying too hard. No ridiculous amounts of fake rocks, no unnecessary 'immersion' aspects to enclosures (like the much too drawn out 'animal crossings' that seem to pop up everywhere), no over-the-top theming of visitor areas that do not benefit the animals at all.
I'm not a big fan of the penguin enclosure, and the elephant enclosure seems to be on the smaller side, but every zoo has it's weak points. For the most part though, a lot of the enclosures seem to be above average. Animals like the red fox and bobcat usually draw the short straw when it comes to zoo enclosures, but they have pretty good enclosures here.
The zoo also has a lot of interesting mixed species enclosures. I don't think I've ever seen colobus monkeys mixed with antelopes before.
The zoo has done an excellent job with the design of the habitats. This zoo has a nice selection of animals with a few I rarely see. I'm glad you enjoyed my tour, I had a lot of fun filming it.
Until next vid : )
Glad you enjoyed Jill 😁
I really liked the 🦅: )
I'm sorry Jill but I can't tell what that emoji is. Would you mind telling me what it is? Looks like a chicken or cauliflower 😕
Eagle 🦅
Thanks, now I see it. I was pretty sure I didn't see any chickens or cauliflower at that zoo 😅
@@TomsRoadTrippin I dunno Tom, seing cauliflower at the zoo would be something special. I wonder what the signage would be 😂👍
When i went to riyadh zoo
The first thing i saw was flamingos
N they were beautiful
It was Greater Flamingos
I like your video. sometimes if i get bored i watch your videos.
Thanks, I have lots if content to keep you entertained.
Nice video like it!!
Thank You 😊
They are constructing a new South America exhibit
That's going to be a great addition to that zoo.
I live in Lindale, Texas and I go to that type of zoo actually
I like the Natural look too. And at least all the places you have posted are wheelchair accessible. The worst zoo in the woods was Paws and Claws in Pocono PA. It's in the woods alright no paths all dirt, rocks and tree roots. And the exhibits are way outdated too. It's close to me went one time never again. My membership belongs to LVZoo. In Lehigh Valley.
I'm surprised they can operate like that. It only takes one complaint from someone in a wheelchair to have the ADA on them. I'll have to check out Lehigh Valley Zoo when I go to Pennsylvania.
@@TomsRoadTrippin I know right. I was so disappointed $18.00 to get in too. So many things I saw wrong. I have to send you some flyers I have them. LVZ It's still advance tickets hope next year they can fully open. Animal Adventure in NY no advance tickets.
Hey Tom!
I really enjoyed this video, this Zoo has a good selection of animals, some of which we don’t see very often on the channel. I most enjoyed the East Africa section of the Zoo. I found it really cool how at 24:58 you showed the 3 lionesses overlooking all the other animals Tom. If you hadn’t said anything, I for sure would’ve thought that the herbivores and the lions were all together! The herbivores wouldn’t have lasted long 😳! You mentioned a separation of some sort Tom, what was it exactly? Was it a water separation or something else? Please answer this question as I’m very curious! I think it’s awesome the Zoo made it so the lions were overlooking animals that they would normally hunt in Africa. And you showed us lionesses, even better as they do all the hunting!
17:54: Yay!😁 We haven’t had a giraffe feeding on the channel in a while! I always enjoy the giraffes, such majestic animals!
11:42: These are called Wattled Currasows, I saw them in a documentary when I was younger and the name stuck for some reason. I’m good like that, remembering names and such!
16:16: I was VERY pleasantly surprised when I saw this enclosure! So much space for them! Like their own savanna away from savanna ( home away from home, I know my jokes suck, I’ll escort myself out lol 😂👍 ).
28:30: I always love the alligators! I wish they were around where I live like it is with you but way too cold for such big reptiles most of the year. Where I live, the ground is covered in snow for 7-8 months. There has been previous years in my town where there was snow on the ground every month of the year. I’m lucky to see other majestic animals though like lynx ( I rarely see this animal because they are very secretive but I have seen them a few times, actually all the times I saw them was in winter )! I also see various waterfowl ( mallards, Canadian Geese, Sandhill Cranes which is one of two cranes found in Canada, the other being the whooping crane which I’ve never seen in person. But I once saw Sandhill Cranes raise their young at my grandparents old house at the pond across the road, when I tell you I spent hours at that pond observing wildlife Tom, I mean hours! I also see Moose every now and then. Beavers, white-tailed deer, otters occasionally, various hawks and eagles, all sorts of stuff! )
Oh and also Black Bears, there’s a big male black bear that lives in the woods behind my dads house. We call him Yogi 🤣👍!
Bet you chuckled at that haha!
30:44: Well then! This Zoo has a good size white-tailed deer herd!
31:46: Bison are very cool! There’s actually a natural preserve near my house ( about a 5 minute drive from my house ) and basically there’s a hotel and stuff with spa and restaurant but then there’s this huge fenced in forest area with deer ( I forgot the exact species but I wanna saw fallow deer or something like that ), elk, Canadian Geese, Ducks, Mute Swans ( during the summer ). They used to have Moose but unfortunately 2 years ago we had a very cold winter and the moose ( 2 ) did not survive. But a tractor goes through this preserve on a dirt road pulling a trailer which the tourists ride in! At the end of the tour, in a fenced off area is a clearing where they keep their bison. Before, they had 2 male bison, but they recently got some more and they had another baby recently which is about 2 weeks old or so! I think the herd is at 10 or so bison right now! The location is Called Cedar Meadows, I honestly don’t know if they allow filming or not but if they do, come on over and film it for the channel! I think it would be really cool! You can also feed all the animals Pellets/Kibble. Whatever you wanna call it lol. When they had moose, they gave you branches for the moose.
I like that this Zoo had lots of birds, you mentioned this at one point.
37:10: Aww that’s a shame, I always enjoy the otters! They’re so cute and playful! Oh well!
38:16: Naughty boy Tom, missing the reptile house on your first walk through. Just messing with ya man 😉.
38:42: That right there is what’s called a beautiful habitat! Whoever did this is very very very very talented!
44:52: Yay! Dart Frogs 🐸! I love their colours!
47:56: Awesome that the Zoo does conservation for these! I enjoyed all the information about how they do so! While we’re on the subject of conservation, I was pleasantly surprised at how many species survival plans this Zoo participantes in ( as well as Ellen Trout Zoo )!
54:58: Yay! Penguins 🐧!
52:38: There’s the ostrich in the background! I see you girl! Girl because grey feathers.
So this comment is already very long Tom ( I hope that’s ok! ) but I wanted to give you some praise before I go!
Your channel is still my favourite! No matter what the other channels put out, it just doesn’t match up with you, although I love the other channels don’t get me wrong. You win the War and The Battle Tom.
“There was a war, but they’re the last ones standing.” I’m sorry but that’s from one of my favourite movies ( Godzilla VS Kong ), I had to 😂👍!
But you remain my favourite Tom, you come out on top as King Of RUclips. 👑
It may take me a bit to watch your videos sometimes but that’s just because I’m busy with school and work, but when I do get to it, I love every second of it! Your channel is just awesome Tom! I almost can’t describe it at this point 🤣😂👍😂!
So as usual, looking forward to your reply, I hope you’re well Tom!
PS: Video Of Sheldon!🙂 Please!
Sorry for the long comment lol, sorry if you’re annoyed by this, let me know if you are.
“We NEED Tom, The World needs him, to stop what’s coming”.
@Noah Roy The lions are separated by a moat, from the vantage point of the lion habitat you can't see it.
It's fun to feed the giraffe, most of the time they aren't doing it because of the pandemic.
You could have alligators, you just have to let them sleep in bed with you to keep em warm. You don't happen to have bunk beds do you? Alligators get the top bunk 😁
The white tailed deer are seriously cute, got to pet and feed them several times. That's awesome they have a hotel for the Bison, they need someplace to go on vacation too.
I was disappointed I didn't get to see the otters but maintaining the habitat is important for the animals.
I'm glad I noticed the reptile house, just happened to miss the pathway the first time.
Penguins are fun to watch, especially when they are separated by glass. They really smell fowl 😁
That ostrich was hood at hiding, so glad I got to see her finally.
I appreciate your detailed comments Noah, your high praise means a lot to me. It's always appreciated that my efforts make people happy. I apologize for the late reply, I get very busy at the ending of the week.
54:28 The northern leopard tortoise is at the zoo, now!
🥰 Giraffe feeding
A giraffe licked my hand once, very weird feeling 😟
@@TomsRoadTrippin and slobber can't forget the slobber.
Oh Yes, plenty of slobbering going on with that giraffe.
Hola

I cant believe it bothers me but lol its pronounced Called Well hahahahaha. But wow I havnt been there since the month the Nintendo 64 came out. I remember because right after the trip to the zoo we went to the store and bought one lol
WOW, that was quite some time ago. How mich different does the zoo look now compared to back then?
@@TomsRoadTrippin Its changed quite a bit since then lol. The upkeep looks a lot better, less sun bleached signs and better enclosers for the animals and looks like more stuff to do there now. Also there were not Penguins when i was there back then. Thanks for the video
It's always nice to see a zoo change for the better. It shows the community cares about the zoo and donated to help renovation goals. Thanks for watching 😊

They are super cute animals
