Movers in New York and Queens Zoo

Lions and tigers and bears - in New York City? Oh my! Add a wild side to your upcoming Movers in New York vacation by visiting Queens Zoo in Flushing Meadows Corona Park. A tribute to American Animals, the Queens Zoo reopened its gates in 1992. The second of three city zoos to be renovated by the Wildlife Conservation Society, the Queens Zoo now stands as an example for zoos around the country. Advances and zoo technology and animal management are on display throughout the facility, ensuring that both the animals and Movers in New York travelers have a save and happy time while inside.

America the beautiful

When the Wildlife Conservation Society took charge of the Queens Zoo in 1992 they transformed it into a tribute to American animals. Naturalistic settings within the zoo now house spectacular all-American animal species, like the American Bison, mountain lions, California sea lions and Roosevelt elk. Design to feel like a small national park, the Queens zoo provides Movers in New York travelers with an amazing wildlife adventure experience. More than $16 million went into the renovations at Queens Zoo, and there's no denying the transformation that money helped spawn.
