The entrance to Audubon Zoo in New Orleans.

This wonderful zoo contains African, Asian and South American landscapes and fauna, as well as the ultra-cool Louisiana Swamp exhibit, full of alligators, bobcats, foxes, bears and otters. During the summer months, part of the zoo becomes a dedicated water park for the kids.
