This is a great activity if your children love animals, and you want to kill a few hours without spending any money. Like a mini-zoo that rehabilitates old and wounded animals, the Ecology Park has a ton of different species. We couldn't believe how close we could get to those huge bears and cows!
I have recently moved from Long Island to NC and Greatly miss this place! I grew up playing there and seeing the animals and then I took my kids there! It is a GREAT place to go on a nice day that is Free! And it is very educational for the children!
Built atop a garbage dump, this scenic park offers swimming pools, a fitness trail, picnic and playground areas, a zoo housing local injured wildlife, and a barnyard of friendly farm animals to pet.
