Waypoint: North America Region 40092758N 83070181W

Bald Eagle (North America)

The first region suggested is North America.  As the largest region represented in the zoo, you should expect to see familiar animals along with animals that are seldom spotted out in the open.  There are bobcats, otters, wolves, and cougars.  You should find the bald eagle fly.  The bears are usually easy to spot as they are practicing being lazy. 
Within the North America region, you will also experience one of the latest additions, the Polar Frontier.  In the polar region, you should see polar bears, Alaskan brown bears, and Arctic foxes.  The polar bears will demonstrate their swimming abilities. 
A favorite of the students is another part of North America, Habitat Hollow. This is a small house simulating the perfect world of conservation and recycling (http://greenplanet4kids.com/ ).  It is very educational.  You may even want to visit "My Barn," which is near the house and includes various farm animal such as chickens, ponies, goats, and sheep.
