Favorite animals to see in zoo's

Adding to this I always love seeing my dads favorite animal — the Secretary Bird. As for myself I’ll add otters; both river and ocean variants in water habitats. And At the San Diego Zoo I love seeing their Bug house. Almost every insect and arthropod in there is displayed well in an impressive habitat and I enjoy it a lot.
 
Always love seeing tigers and ocelots, other cats are great too. I usually end up spending a lot of time around the otters and primates (of any species) because they tend to be pretty active and sometimes even interact with guests through the barrier. I like to see wolves too, just because I live in Texas and not many zoos here have wolves.

For me it's the Sulawesi Babirusa. I've only seen them at ZSL London Zoo but due to their rarity in the UK I always try to visit them (now just her) once a month. I have now taken 1,330 photos of London's individuals and see her on every visit.
 
Elephants are my favorite. Tho also any of the mega herbivores like rhinos, hippos, and wild cattle
 
If I need to pick favorites, it will be anything cat (big or small) red panda & lemurs.

But artctic foxes, tree kangaroo, okapi are a few amongst them.
They are either cute to watch, or just fascinating due to their colors or just how they look in general.
 
The idea of this thread is quite simple, what is the animal that you just love to see when you go to the zoo?
The Toronto zoo being my home zoo, my favorite animals to see are always the Sumatran orangutans and the ring tailed lemurs. i also love to see the often overlooked animals, being reptiles and amphibians.

Well, of course my favorite to see are hyaenids. Carnivorans in general are great, and big cats, canids, and bears always make me happy. Gotta love small mammals too, all sorts of nocturnal house species are fun to see.
