Where are the actual animals?
圣塔芭芭拉动物园的点评
点评：This zoo is pathetic. I went here decades ago, liked it, and thought it might be fun for my adult son to see now. Unfortunately, it in no way resembled what I remembered. The vast majority of "animals" here are large plastic replicas, like you might see in Legoland (which I love, by the way); there are very few actual real animals, and certain zoo "staples," such as giraffes, are simply missing. The whole place has a run-down feel to it, and they seem to be trying to make it appealing to parents with young kids by creating a couple of playground-like areas, which are nice enough and probably keep toddlers occupied but bear no relation to what a zoo should actually offer. There were also two large Toyota car displays (because apparently Toyota is a sponsor of the zoo), including actual cars (see photo of one). The cars were cool, but why are cars in a zoo? The train "store" was either shut down or didn't exist anymore (see photo), and the zoo's train wasn't working (for who know how long—see photo). To make matters worse, the $25 admission fee per person (not including parking!) is simply unjustifiable. The only reason I'm giving this zoo two stars instead of one is because I do think if you want a play area for your toddler and if you're maybe a zoo member and so get a better deal on admission, it could be worth it. But for occasional visitors, especially adults, forget it. I don't think any kid age 5 or above would think much of this zoo either. Really disappointing, and a rip-off.
翻译：这个动物园太可怜了。几十年前我来过这里，很喜欢，我觉得现在我成年的儿子去看看可能会很有趣。不幸的是，它一点也不像我记忆中的样子。这里绝大多数的“动物”都是大型塑料复制品，就像你在乐高乐园看到的那样（顺便说一句，我很喜欢）；真正的动物很少，而且某些动物园“主打”动物，比如长颈鹿，根本就不见了。整个地方给人一种破败的感觉，他们似乎试图通过创建几个类似游乐场的区域来吸引有小孩的父母，这些区域还不错，可能能让幼儿玩得开心，但与动物园实际提供的东西毫无关系。还有两个大型丰田汽车展示（因为丰田显然是动物园的赞助商），包括真正的汽车（见其中一张照片）。这些汽车很酷，但动物园里为什么要有汽车呢？火车“商店”要么关闭了，要么不再存在了（见照片），动物园的火车也停运了（谁知道停运了多久——见照片）。更糟糕的是，每人 25 美元的入场费（不包括停车费！）简直不合理。我给这个动物园两颗星而不是一颗星的唯一原因是，我认为如果你想为你的幼儿提供一个游乐区，如果你是动物园会员，可以得到更优惠的入场费，那么这可能是值得的。但对于偶尔来访的游客，尤其是成年人，那就别想了。我认为 5 岁或以上的儿童也不会对这个动物园有什么好感。真的很令人失望，简直就是在坑人。
