My spidey senses are tingling…
It’s telling me that the Spider City at the Los Angeles Zoo opened a few days ago, and needs some arachnid lovers to come check it out. ^_~ That is, if you’re not arachnophobic, of course.
What better a time to open Spider City than when Spider-Man 3 is in theaters? Coincidence?
I think not.
But that’s not really the point here.
In Spider City, you’ll find at least 25 different species of spiders, including the Cobalt Blue Tarantula, Brown Recluse, Goliath Birdeater, and Chilean Rosehair. It’s a temporary exhibit, located in the old koala house. The exhibit will only be open for viewing until October 31st, so if you wanna check it out, be sure to mark your calendars so you won’t be too late.
The Los Angeles Zoo and Botanical Gardens is home to well over 200 species of mammals, birds, reptiles, and invertebrates. Amongst the many animal exhibits throughout the park, the zoo features a number of shows featuring trained animals, such as the Worlds Bird Show. The zoo is located at the northeast corner of Griffith Park, at the Junction of the I-5 and I-134 freeways. Open everyday but Christmas, the zoo hours are from 10AM-5PM. Ticket prices are $10 for Adults (13 and up), $7 for Senior (62 and up), and $5 for Kids (2-12 years old). Kids under 2 get in free.
