If some of you may be Disney fans or movie geeks the attractions in Orlando, Florida will definitely keep you satisfied, but the more recent additions to the attraction groups has followed the theme of nature and wildlife. It all started with SeaWorld, an attraction park showing off the amazing display of Shamu the killer whale and various other aquatic creatures such as dolphins and sea lions. This was the formula for success for SeaWorld and the park branched out, opening sister parks such as Aquatica and Discovery Cove.
Another recent successful park which themes itself around wildlife and nature is Busch Gardens Tampa Bay. With over 2,700 animals, this is one of Americas largest zoological institutions, with tigers, orangutans and rhinos, it is no surprise then that Busch Gardens take strides to involve themselves in conservation.
