I made my very first visit in 2010, and without being too knowledgeable about zoos at the time I thought it was nearly perfect. Yeah, the bears didn't and still don't have it the best, but I've been to places that are considered better that have a lot worse so two or three unfavorable exhibits ain't too shabby. I wouldn't say that the zoo was simple but it was still grounded with a few unique twists. Then the ambition kicked in, and new projects were being added every couple of years. Some of them were great: phasing out polar bears for macaques - awesome - adding to their reptile collection, perfect - expanding an already good elephant complex, even better. However, a majority of these projects made it seem like the zoo was more concerned about quantity over quality. On one hand, the Orangutan and Chimp complexes had budgets to make some of the best, immersive exhibits in the nation. Instead, the design team tried to be as different as they possibly could be and in doing so, ended up with argument fuel for anti zoo activists and even invited heavy criticism from zoo enthusiasts. My walk through the chimpanzee complex was the first time I truly started to question the ethics of zoos. Then on the other hand, the other half of the newer projects didn't have the budget to create anything spectacular, it shows, and in my eyes they just made the zoo look lazy. I understand they don't have a lot of space to work with - but they've proved that raising money isn't a problem. So I just wonder why rush an exhibit when you could increase your budget goals to make something more immersive? I say that, but then again... we've all seen what the Indy Zoo does with mega budget projects. Some of you might believe this is ridiculous to say but I truly believe the Indianapolis Zoo was an overall better, more respectable institution 15 years ago than it is today. It's odd and sad that exhibits from 1988 still hold up better than some built in 2024. So where does it rank on my list? 15 years ago, I'd put it near the 25 spot, but with the way things are these days, around the 30 spot. Rant over.
