	+ ------ + ''2012-08-01 19:07:40'' [[nbsp]] What a great little attraction, not many towns the size of Rochester could sustain something like this. Naysayers may point to the cramped facilities for the animals (and it's hard to argue different) but with scant resources it does amazingly well. My kids learn more about the environment and conservation here than they could anywhere else and that, perhaps, justifies it's existence. Members for eight years. --["Users/sieats"]
