World of Birds
This sanctuary has more than 400 species of indigenous and exotic birds, including eagles, vultures, penguins, and flamingos. With neither bars nor nets separating you from most of the birds, you can get some pretty good photographs; however, the big raptors are (wisely) kept behind fences. The "monkey jungle" has around three-dozen highly inquisitive (and very agile and fast) squirrel monkeys that roam freely, often alighting on your shoulders or back (sometimes stealing your loose belongings). There's also a reptile section and some small mammals (like meerkats and raccoons)––as with its birds, many of the animals are rescues, and there's an animal hospital, orphanage, and facilities for breeding threatened species. There's also a small jungle gym for children.
