Pet place is where the animals used for education programs are kept. It's a strange building, originally designed to be a small concessions kiosk. The hood and backsplash plate for the grill are still in there, but all the appliances are gone. It's kind of weirdly in the middle of all the Children's Zoo exhibits, but it's not designed to be an exhibit itself. If you press against the windows you can see chinchillas, or Madagascar cockroaches, or maybe a snake or a lizard. A big male cockatoo named Crystal will interact with you through the window, putting his crest up and croaking "Hi Crystal!"
