In 2007 the Insect House was added to the Children's Zoo, with a variety of fascinating insect and arachnid species for guests to discover. The exhibits were created to provide a close view to see all the details, even for little visitors—who, in some cases, were much more interested and willing to approach than their adult companions!
As San Diegans will recall, 2007 was another bad year for wildfires in San Diego—and once again, the Wild Animal Park got burnt around the edges but escaped major injuries and loss of life. It didn't come out unscathed, though. Here, Park bird curator Michael Mace surveys some of the damage to the Condorminium facility. Everyone's main concern was that the condors were alright, but the damage did amount to thousands of dollars.
