The Audubon Zoo in New Orleans, Louisiana - a Great Vacation and Travel Destination

If you love animals there is no better place to vacation than in New Orleans, Louisiana . That's because it's home to the Audubon Zoo, which is one of the nation's best zoos. There are more than 1,500 animals that come from many different countries worldwide. In fact, when you visit the Audubon Zoo you will see 350 different species of animals, which is simply amazing!

Some of the many animals here are white tigers, rhinos, gorillas, and more reptiles than you can imagine. In one exhibit there are even white alligators, which are pretty rare and something many people have never seen! Kids and adults of all ages really enjoy watching the animal shows with sea lions or the feeding times of the giraffes, Komodo dragons, alligators, and the like.

A great experience is the Embraceable Zoo where endangered domestic animals may be touched and loved. The kids and animals get a lot out of this and it is a great place to get some good photos as well. Another fun place within the Audubon Zoon is the Children's Zoo. There is a carousel and a Safari Simulator ride that is a lot of fun and can really break up the day of seeing animals.

The Audubon Nature Institute operates the New Orleans Audubon Zoo, which is located at Audubon Park . The Zoo hours are 9:30 am - 5 pm daily from early November until late March. The summer hours are 9:30 am - 5 pm on weekdays and until 6 pm on weekends. The zoo is open most days of the year with the exception of the first Friday in May, Mardi Gras Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day. Admission for adults is $12, seniors age 65 and up are $9 and children 2-12 is $7.

If you are spending several days in the area you might like the combination ticket for the zoo as well as the Audubon Aquarium of the Americas.

Which state produces the best talent when it comes to football?

Me being from Louisiana, I say it's us because pound for pound we have put out some of the best talent this league has ever seen(Bradshaw, Faulk, Manning, Dunn) and many more. every year we have more and more players come out of the state of Louisiana as high prospects. This past year John Curtis High School defeated Hoover High (from MTV's two a days) and yet they recieved no respect for that. For the size of our state and our LSU fighting tigers being in the national spotlight. I think we produce the best highschool football players in the country.If you think your state is the best , please explain.

Per capita, I think you are correct...we have the most in LA. However, its the big states that have the most. If I had to rate, it would be in this order for top 5:
Florida
Texas
California
Louisiana
Georgia

Louisiana is getting even more into the pros lately, but the huge populations in the states above us on my list will continue to have more just because of volume. (Its nice to see that LSU pretty much has a lock on the LA players and is getting more and more from the bigger states.)
