Hi guys. I would like to know which of these zoos are your favorite. the Singapore Zoo or the San Diego Zoo. Please feel free to include as much detail as you would like, but please come to a conclusion at the end. Thanks very much. :)

By the way, I think the Singapore Zoo is slightly better, although i loved both zoos.

I would guess Singapore. But I've never been to either. I certainly plan to, so I'll tell in you in like 30 years when I'll maybe have the money to have done both:p

Been to both. San Diego is an easy winner for me: the animal collection is far richer (for one thing, Singapore Zoo has very few birds).
HOWEVER, if the contest were between San Diego and all the Singapore collections - including Jurong & Night Safari, etc. - then it would become a tougher choice.
 
Been to both too. And I share MikeG's opinion for the same reason.

@MikeG: And what, if you compare all San Diego Zoological society collections (Zoo and Safari Park) with all Singapore ZS collections? Or even all Zoological institutions in San Diego (add SeaWorld and Birch) with all in Singapore (add SEA Aquarium, Butterfly Park Sentosa and Underwater World Sentosa)? Even tougher, isn't it?;)

Yes indeed! The real question is, perhaps, which destination is better as a zoological hotspot - San Diego or Singapore? And that's a really tough choice.
The heat & humidity in Singapore are a problem for me, as I don't cope too well with it. California weather is usually much more comfortable, so that's one factor when considering overall enjoyment. But I haven't yet seen the new S.E.A. Aquarium in Singapore, so I can't tell whether that would influence my choice.
 
to be honest, they're not even close in my book. Singapore Zoo is an excellent, world class zoo and I have truly enjoyed my visits, but it is absolutely no match for San Diego Zoo. Everything in Singapore vs. everything in San Diego is a comparison of apples and oranges, but if I had to compare them I'd place the former in the lead
