Cameron Park Zoo in Waco is one of the best zoos in Texas, if not the country. Its small size and both animal- and viewer-friendly displays make it a delightful place to spend a few hours, especially during the cooler months. The decidedly cave-like location where Val took advantage of the unusual lighting in Feb., 2007, to snap Larry's portrait is in the Brazos River exhibit, a particularly creatively designed section of the zoo that uses a variety of different venues to illustrate the wildlife of the Brazos, from its source on the Llano Estacado to its mouth at the Gulf of Mexico.
