Aurora has a mini zoo that isn't much compared to Brookfield or Lincoln- but it's not bad considering it's five minutes away from my house. My family used to go there a lot when I was a kid- we'd make fun of it by saying it didn't have any real animals only squirrels, racoons, and stray cats. It's pretty impressive what they've done with the place now though- now more jokes. I took the liberty of organizing the pictures from our day at the Phillips Park Zoo- on a nifty little website, you can use the slideshow for easy viewing, click here.
