    What a cold-blooded and slimy place (couldn't be more awsome).

    I like this Amphibian Center. I like the work they are doing. I appreciate their hard work. I would like to have seen MANY more babies or eggs. I know its a conservation center so they are just holding on to them but they have an opportunity to do much more and I hope that they will some day.

    Lovely exhibit area! Great variety of amphibians with a lot of great information about them and their habitat etc. Staff within are friendly, helpful and informative. Great stop while at the Detroit Zoo!

    One of the many fun and educational exhibit buildings at the Detroit Zoo. It is a game to look in all of the habitats to find the amphibian! Fun for adults and children alike. There are large and small amphibians to make it interesting.

    Very nice and the volunteer at the door was very informative. I did feel though, the descriptions of the Amphibians should give the approx. size to help find them.

    Great place to find several amphibians 🐸 🦎 🐊 🐍 I had never seen a Axolotl and they have a few big ones over there, it was very cool to finally meet it ☺️ It's challenging actually finding all the amphibians on the different displays, you need to pay a lot of attention and you'll vene miss a couple of them 👀 🤓

    Lots of frogs, big and small. The guides wandering around were very helpful to assist us in spotting the frogs!

    Always love visiting here at the zoo, but now with the new giant japanese salamander exhibit it's even better.

    Good variety of creatures but the glass front of enclosures could be kept cleaner!
