Some time back we had a little debate over the half day park issue at the Nahtazoo known as Disney's Animal Kingdom....I tried the Search, but I cannot locate the old thread...on said thread someone...I believe it was Mr. DisneyKidds claimed that admission to the Bronx Zoo was around $30.. .When I posted the current winter rates for admission ($8)- and clearly stated that the summer rates might be higher but were not posted anywhere--- Mr Kidds made accusations that I was intentionally misleading people and the the summer rates were much higher (he recalled recently paying around $30)---and argued that the "value" for AK as compared to his mythological Bronx Zoo admission of $30 was pretty good, etc, etc....so here are the facts:
the Bronx Zoo spring and summer admission rates are now posted on the internet for any and all to see :
http://bronxzoo.com/bz-hours_and_rates/bz-hours_and_rates_spring/
The adult admission is $11- a far cry from the $30 claimed by Mr Kidds and even if you buy all the extras you can get it all for $19...so---while no one would argue that the Bronz Zoo is anything equal to DAK...One has to wonder if the AK is worth somewhere between 2.6 to 4.5 more in "entertainment" value...this question can be answered differently by different people but the FACT in question was the cost of admission at the Bronx Zoo...in the interest of preventing further false and misleading information from spreading across the Internet the above facts about admission to one of our nation's leading zoos is provided.
