Last stop on our trip was Madrid. Of course we went to the zoo. We were particularly impressed with the sun bears and tapirs; they have many different species of the two, in different groups, kept really well! The sea lion show was also great; entirely education oriented but still fun and engaging for the kids. Surprisingly, they actually walked the sea lion out in front of the kids! This seems really risky to me, but went well and of course had a huge impact on the visitors! Also went to the dolphin show, but just like in Valencia it was mediocre and about watching a dolphin jump, and swim with trainers, rather than impacting education or conservation. The Madrid zoo was overall great, highly recommend visiting it over the valencia oceanarium.
