Welcome to our animal kingdom theme park. You can find us twenty-five kilometers west of Kingston on highway 401. We are the biggest animal theme park in North America, and we can show you animals from all over the world.
The main idea in our theme park is the preservation of endangered species, so we have special areas to allow these animals to live in a natural settings. We hope they will reproduce themselves and that we can save some of these species.
Just beyond the wild area, we have an area with domestic animals where you can walk among them, watch the cows and goats being milked and play with the young animals. You will enjoy seeing the baby animals play and you can feed the horses and goats.
You can reach the tropical bird building by going to your left and up the hill. We have birds of all sizes and colours, and have taught some of them to speak.
There are rides at the north end of the park, including a merry-go-round, a roller-coaster and for those who do not like speed, a ride in a wagon pulled by our big work horses.
The entrance fee is ten dollars for adults and six dollars for children, and each activity costs two dollars.
We hope you enjoy your visit.
