Zoo Tours: The Teton Trek | Memphis Zoo

EPISODE 105
Just about every zoo has at least one attraction that drives its guests to relive it over and over again - the Teton Trek at the Memphis Zoo is that exhibit. This $16 million display is a tribute to the Grand Teton National Park and Grand Yellowstone Ecosystem. In order to pull this off, the zoo recreated as many iconic pieces from these great parks that could fit in just 3.5 acres. Firehole Falls in Wyoming, The Old Faithful Geyser fixed in front of a rendition of the The Old Faithful Inn - complimented by the ecosystem's staple species: wolves, bears, elk and more. Words cannot begin to describe the level of appreciation this immersive experience deserves. The Teton Trek is not only an accomplished zoo attraction, but it will make you want to pack your bags, and head straight towards America's Northwest as soon as possible. Enjoy.

I'm amazed at the number of zoos they have in the US 🦌

[@luggigeisl4218]

Have a look at germany

[@amcc618]

Thank you for this video! I work Teton and north west and am the keeper in the sea lion clips, you made my day with this video. You’ve got footage of animals no longer with us and it was good to see them.

[@noahm398]

Awesome episode! The Teton Trek easily has the greatest bear exhibit I’ve ever seen.

[@PearlMaciel]

I visit the zoo 2 times when I was living in Memphis. I miss them so much. Thank you for this video. 🦍🐘🦒🐅🦌🦇🐺🐻🦉🦅❤❤

[@neilchace1858]

Wow! This might truly be the best zoo exhibit I've ever seen you cover!

[@davidmcavoy2177]

I’m so glad you reviewed another Memphis exhibit! Cat country would be a great one to do for this channel :)

[@rbblades9511]

Agree

[@Zoove1]

I love this one Zak! First, congrats on 14k, second, INSANE GOOD, and third, great video!

[@jameszweep]

They do need a herd of bison. Would really enhance the theme of the exhibit and they’re some of my favorite animals.

[@rbblades9511]

The waterfall at the yellowstone national park is beautiful !

[@wildandmagicalworldofflori8032]

Always love your tours Zach, and Ieally enjoyed this one. For the past few days I've been having bears and wolves on my mind, and now this makes me even more interested to visit Memphis Someday!

[@JAGzilla-ur3lh]

Woah, never realized how nice the Memphis Zoo is! I'm not too far away in Georgia, so I definitely need to visit soon. That bear exhibit is top-tier, very spacious, and it's cool that they rotate between the two different species.

[@lindarevere5846]

fantastic===how do u do this==so many visits!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@ponyrang]

My best friend, Excellent video! Keep it up! I had to see the full video, as always, Keep it up! +thumb up3!

The only thing is I wish it had a little more in it. What about Bison, or even Mountain Lions or other animals? I’m glad they are finally filling up that very long pathway that connects this section of the park to the other. It’s just bare land up until you get to the lodge.

Amazing video Zak

[@chrism2809]

You should consider checking out the Sedgwick county zoo, it is very underrated!

[@PhillipNeumeier]

Seeing this is making me excited for my Yellowstone trip next year

[@owenrutherford3575]

That bear exhibit is absolutely jaw dropping, you said it was massive, but by any chance do you know the actual size? Thanks again for making another great episode Zak!

[@ZooTours]

Yep! It's .60 acres - 26,270 sq ft, and thank you for watching!

[@owenrutherford3575]

@@ZooTours Thanks for the lightning quick response, and 26,270 feet is huge glad to see that they spared no expense.

[@rbblades9511]

Stay safe zak love ur videos !!!

[@tycoonraptor7052]

This zoo is much closer than I first thought, so I might try to take a visit here pretty soon haha

[@zacg_]

I love the Memphis Zoo. The panda exhibit is my favorite of the four I've been to in the USA (including the defunct San Diego exhibit.) The Teton exhibit is really impressive. I only wish that the park area leading up to the zoo was a bit nicer. The parking lot seems really questionable. I'd also love to see them get a bigger reptile house. That said, their Nile Crocodile exhibit is itself phenomenal.

[@calstevens76]

The porcupine exhibit was added within the last year, so a new addition.

[@ficdm825]

[@trentonwalden8785]

Can you do the African forest or Jungle Trails

[@rory5780]

How much does it cost to get a good video camera with a long zoom.

[@aparkadhikari2271]

Please make a video about st augestine Alligator farm

[@the_gaming_hyena]

[@ckm5702]

10:39 what's with the lady dangling her kid over the railing, did we learn nothing from the Pittsburgh wild dog incident?!?! That is easily the best bear habitat I've seen, good on ya Memphis 👏👍🐻

[@ZooTours]

There's mesh between the fence and the wolves as seen in a close up of one of the wolves. The child is fine.

Also, visit the Sacramento Zoo cause' they hosted animatronic dinosaurs for their "Dinorassic Park" event there! Plus, 2 questions for you.... 1) What animal do you like at the San Diego Zoo & why? 2) Which animal from the San Francisco Zoo escaped & attacked 3 visitors like tasty boars back in 2007? Buffers & Carcharodontosaurus!🐅🐅🐅
