Wisconsin Dells exhibits a bit of the exotic, and a lot of true blue heartland. Petting zoos give you a feel for wildlife on other continents. Then there are horse stables, where you can mount up and catch a trail ride at sunset.
But wait, there's more. Did you know the Wisconsin Dells area is home to the International Crane Foundation? Observe the world's rarest crane - the Whooping Crane - in a tranquil wetland setting, and then walk the preserve to view all 15 species of cranes.
