While the lion and tiger habitats may garner most of the attention, the Flamingo has its own animal exhibit of its own.

The Wildlife Habitat is located next to the hotel's pool and serves as a tropical oasis for its residents. The lush landscape gives visitors the perfect setting to snap a couple of photos. Try wandering along the bubbling streams where you can get a couple of pics of ducks and swans. Head further down the pathways and you find yourself in front of a cascading waterfall where Chilean Flamingos and parrots can be found. The ponds and streams aren't just home to the 300 birds, they are also home to koi and turtles.

For those that loved the March of the Penguins DVD, the habitat is sure to be a crowd pleaser. You can come up close and personal with some African penguins. If you are lucky enough you can witness the penguins starting the day off on the right foot as they enjoy a mix of smelt, capelin, herring and vitamins. For those that miss the 8:30 breakfast call, you can make the mid day break that happens at 3:00 p.m.

If the lion and dolphin habitats are on your schedule you might want to add the Wildlife Habitat to that schedule. The habitat provides the perfect third installation for any animal lover.
