African Lions at Bronx Zoo

So much!! My little guy is 1 and he enjoyed it saying the animals and their sounds. He loved the train! Great for all ages.

We had great time, got the best view of Lion. we would definitely visit again.

Zoo requires timed tickets for entry and masking. There are disinfectant stations available at major exhibits and pathways.
The snack shops have outdoor seating.

I recently visited Athens, Greece. Walking around its ancient Agora—the marketplace where philosophers taught and Athenians worshiped—I found altars to Apollo and Zeus, all in the shadow of the Acropolis, where a statue of the goddess Athena once stood.

We may not bow to Apollo or Zeus today, but society is no less religious. “Everybody worships,” novelist David Foster Wallace said, adding this warning: “If you worship money and things . . . then you will never have enough. . . . Worship your body and beauty. . . and you will always feel ugly. . . . Worship your intellect . . . [and] you will end up feeling stupid.” Our secular age has its own gods, and they’re not benign.

“People of Athens!” Paul said while visiting the Agora, “I see that in every way you are very religious” (Acts 17:22). The apostle then described the one true God as the Creator of all (vv. 24–26) who wants to be known (v. 27) and who has revealed Himself through the resurrection of Jesus (v. 31). Unlike Apollo and Zeus, this God isn’t made by human hands. Unlike money, looks, or intelligence, worshiping Him won’t ruin us.

Our “god” is whatever we rely on to give us purpose and security. Thankfully, when every earthly god fails us, the one true God is ready to be found (v. 27).We often use Paul’s interaction with the people in Athens as a model for evangelism: know your audience and tailor your message to them. The apostle observed the religious behavior of the Athenians and demonstrated his knowledge of the Hebrew Scriptures and the life and work of Jesus. But we also see that Paul’s speech was a refutation of the Athenian approach to religion. In a place where they had many idols to which they offered sacrifices of food and drink, the apostle asserts that there’s only one God, and He doesn’t live in temples and doesn’t need to be served by humans.

So cool the entire zoo is large and you can easily spend a day or two trying to see it all. What a wonderful time.

Loved the Holiday Lights. So festive! The staff were awesome and the holiday music, ice sculptures and smore station were well received.

The great thing about this zoo is that some of the habitats are so large you may not see the animal inside. If you are lucky you will see the lions resting and even hear their roar. Enjoy them from a distance !

So beautiful and so many friendly employees

I love seeing the king of the jungle, so beautiful and peaceful.

So close to the Lions without the fear. Awesome exhibit!

The variety of animal species at African Lions at Bronx Zoo is remarkable. From majestic lions to playful penguins, there's something for everyone to enjoy.

Lions were amazing, roaring and climbing

He was roaring for his mate

We attended the evening holiday light show. The sea lions were the only outdoor live exhibit. A fun time was had by all, friendly helpful staff and beautiful displays throughout. Covid precautions in place. Center mall holiday tree puts on quite a show

I LOVE the big cats! They're amazing!

Fun! Fun! Fun! My grand kids and myself had a great time, can't wait to go back! The butterfly house, reptiles, lions, and giraffes, were great to look at. The children zoo also very enjoyable! Planing to go back soon.

The kids loved it, even though the lions and lioness just sort of lay down in the sun, but who can blame them? We always see the tree toys that they can play with, but they never do. The good thing is that when the males do decide to roar, it can be heard from really far away. A must see and hear.

Amazing view of the kings of the jungle.

My girlfriend and I had such an amazing time. We got to see most of the animals and some of the exhibits that were so breathtaking. Looking forward to coming back here and seeing all the animals again.

We love African Plains. We go there almost every weekend. My son enjoys it so much. It is one of the most amazing places in NYC.
