Busch Gardens Animal Care Center — Attraction in Tampa

If you like roller coasters you are going to love this place. We didn't ride any of them but they looked really fun. We are older and due to health issues didn't ride anything but still found lots of other interesting things to do. The shows were very entertaining and lots of animals to view.

Can you imagine going there and having a giraffe brought in that would be a well bonus make sure you check out the area and register to sign up for this. I have no pictures of inside the clinic being we just sat there and cooled off lol it...

They supposedly gave us free tickets by way of email but then used our regular tickets to get in. Busch Gardens has let the grounds degrade, the animal viewing areas are dirty and the windows are very dirty. Had to wait two hours and 40 minutes if I wanted to ride a ride. Also if you take the railroad train around the park, you sit at the station almost as long as it takes a train to get to the next station. We bought Platinum passes but I don't know if we...
