Walkin' in a Winter Wonder Zoo

If you're a fan of big cats, then go to the Blank Park Zoo in the winter. The decorative rocks near the windows in the animals' habitats are heated, and that's where the lions and tigers hang out. Standing next to the glass is as close as you're going to get without a veterinary degree.

Also, the zoo is all but empty, and you can sit in as many butterfly chairs as you want.
