I spent most of my childhood in Indianapolis and we loved the zoo. SO much has been updated. The dolphin building used to be tan, the Orangutan exhibit...mind-blowing, hope the desert dome is still there. So much awesome change. Going into the African exhibit, the train used to cross over the pathway into that exhibit. The train ride was my favorite. Hope it's still there. I lived in Naptown from '90 - '05, and the zoo is way cooler now...even though Indy Zoo was in the nation's top zoos back in the day. BTW...the person who designed the Indianapolis Zoo logo was my Graphic Design teacher at Warren Central High School...Mr. Spencer.
The penguins! The brass statue of those penguins used to be in the Glendale mall on the north side of Indianapolis. I used to play on those as a child. How cool to see them again.
If I remember right...and I'm going back to the 90s when I was around 12, going into the Ocean exhibit, you walk down a walkway with water pouring down to the left and right, and at thsbottom of the decline, you get to these penguin statues, which used to be a pool full of coins.
we went to the indinapolis zoo just the other day and it was definitely an amazing experience! after watching this video though, I realised we accidentally skipped an entire section of the zoo 😅 whoops
Omg, I know this is two years ago, but I have to say this! When I was 7 and went here with my family, that place you saw with where the monkeys were and the huge water, thats where the polar bear used to be. It was 10 years ago, I still can't believe it, I miss the polar bear!
Fun fact, birds are now considered to actually be living dinosaurs, not just their descendants. They now belong to the clade Maniraptora, making them close cousins of dinosaurs like Velociraptor and Therizinosaurus.
I LOVE ANIMALS SO MUCH

I love the giant turtle!! Also "Hi Aku and Ginger!"
Great video! I'm very impressed with this zoo! A lot of very nice exhibits!
Check Dallas zoo ! Also has great exhibitis and better environments (my opinion)

Love the Legend!
thanks for the videos
Looks like a nice zoo
The Lion is my Favorite Animal.
3:55 Reminds someone from the Lion King
That's a pretty sleek park
The male and female lions are separated to prevent inbreeding
the macaw exhibit actually opened in 2017.
It used to be the polar bear
@@kylepolley6115 The Macaque exhibit used to be a Polar Bear exhibit I'm talking about the Macaw exhibit, but yes you are right.
Hi legend and molly 👋😊👋
The lar gibbon is my favorite zoo animal
I love all my lion kin
You should do the Minnesota zoo!
The dolphin dome is the only one in the world
The orangutan climbs so tall
The zebras and wildebeest rotate with the ostrich and kudu
Ahhhh that makes sense
In the Loop you guys should look at zoo tours videos
@@kevinmiller4457 Its just Zoo Tours and his name is Zachary Handel, he runs the channel. I would recommend him.
@Mr Zootuber yes
Anyone say anything mean about this video watch it. That's my hometown!
The orangutan is Katie, a female!
Bummer no coaster credit for molly
You guys should go to the Fort Wayne zoo
It is one the list of ones I want to go to
In the Loop nice what about the Louisville zoo
That one I haven’t heard as much about
In the Loop really that zoo has 3 aza Award winning attractions
@Mr Zootuber They have plans to update it in a couple years
I meet u at. Ga
"Vast African plains type of area here"...cocaine is a he'll of a drug.."the ostrich is running"!
I feel a bit sad for the orangutan because in the wild orangutans almost never touch the ground
Did u not see the Orangutan up in the sky?
My wife would smack me if I compared her to the size of a white rhino. Lol. You're just a few min up the road from me.
Christmas at the zoo is really cool.
Boo, they have dolphins.
