The San Antonio Zoo is making headlines with its newest Spring attraction, "Giants of the Ice Age." Effective March 9th through May 5th, zoo-goers can take a trip back in time and come up close and personal with enormous prehistoric creatures, such as the mammoth woolly mammoth and the formidable saber-toothed tiger. As per FOX San Antonio, it also includes a giant Ice Age-themed slide and an inflatable obstacle course.

Tim Morrow, President & CEO of San Antonio Zoo, expressed his excitement about the exhibit: "Prepare to witness Ice Age creatures like never before! Giants of the Ice Age is a first-time opportunity for our guests to experience these awe-inspiring creatures that once ruled the earth," San Antonio's First News reports. The exhibition is not just a visual spectacle – it's also intended to be an educational experience that sheds light on the rich history of our planet.

Located behind the zoo parking garage, the exhibit promises not only to dazzle but educate. For those looking to indulge their inner caveman appetite, the park is serving up glacial-themed treats including turkey legs and roasted corn. The experience is free for members and included with standard admission, with an offer—pay for a day, and revel in a year of free membership.

For the uninitiated looking to join the club of prehistoric animal enthusiasts, the San Antonio Safari and Adventure Park awaits. The space will play host to the exhibit, which aims to inspire awe as well as provide an enriching and immersive learning experience for visitors of all ages. As San Antonio's First News outlined.
