Parks & Nature
Great information center with a couple hour hike to see the flora and fauna of the Chihuahuan Desert. It is also a rescue zoo with bald eagles, bison, elk, lions, Mexican wolves, reptile house, and a very fun prairie dog village. At the end is a large greenhouse with succulents or cacti from all over the world. Info center has a display of all the deserts of the world and how each is so very different. Five dollar admission but highly recommended.
