Text ZOO to 501501

If you visit Miami, make sure you visit "Zoo Miami." That is the brand new name of the former Miami MetroZoo which just celebrated its 30th birthday in July. On July 2nd, Zoo Miami unveiled to showcase its new, brightly colored, beautiful and hi-tech entrance on SW 124th Avenue and 152nd Street.

This new entrance has on top a new panoramic bright screen to display zoo images and messages dispatched to visitors. This shot captures Zoo Miami's wish list for a $5 birthday gift from the general population via a mobile giving campaign. The message reads "Text ZOO to 501501" to donate $5.00 I just did! This campaign supports wildlife conservation awareness at Zoo Miami. With this money, the Zoo will showcase wildlife and plant life from Florida and the Everglades in a new exhibit in 2013.

But right now, the exhibits in this zoo are "spectacular." You won't believe what you can see and learn here. Only in Miami!
