San Diego Zoo Safari Park

The San Diego Zoo Safari Park, formerly known as the San Diego Wild Animal Park until 2010, is a 730-acre zoo in San Diego, California, near Escondido. It is one of the most popular tourist destinations in San Diego County. The zoo is home to a wide range of natural and endangered animals from the continents of Africa, Asia, Europe, North and South America, and Australia. The park is located in a semi-arid environment, and one of the most notable features is the Africa Tram, which travels through the extensive African display. These free-territorial areas are home to antelopes, giraffes, buffaloes, cranes, and rhinoceroses. The park is also notable for its California condors.
