Make a genuine connection that will last a lifetime as you venture through Animal World & Snake Farm Zoo, where you will experience hands-on encounters with some of your favorite furry, feathery, hairy, and scaly friends. You may even get a chance to hold some of these beautiful animals, if they are up to it, of course. As you stroll through the grounds you’ll see the Clawed Otters, Black Mambas, Blue Headed Macaws, Fennec Foxes, Grey Wolves, Jaguars, Spotted Hyenas, and snakes galore, all unique in their own ways. While you're at it, catch a perfect view of the bison and longhorn as you take a break under the shaded deck. Stop by Two Rivers Mining, Co., the Zoo’s very own gemstone mine for an incredible opportunity to pan for gemstones, fossils, crystals, and shark teeth!

The Rollercade is go-to destination for both amateur and experienced roller-skaters alike. They provide generations of families with roller-skating, thumping music, and plenty of bruised knees. San Antonio’s premiere roller skating facility is frozen in time in a heavy 70s roller disco theme, complete with neon lights and trippy magic-carpet Day-Glo swirls. Besides offering public skating, the Rollercade also provides private lessons and parties for young and old alike.

Grab your furbaby and hit the road toward the San Antonio Dog Parks, where you can choose from 17 off-leash parks that will unleash your pet's endless energy. These canine frolic locations offer plenty of space to play catch, chase, and make new friends. Want to separate small from large dogs? They have those too, with play equipment and water fountains.
