With all the flashing lights, massive billboards, and the grandeur of Las Vegas, you forget that Las Vegas is more than just that. There are shows, attractions, and much more. One of the specialties of Las Vegas, and always a crowd-pleaser, is the animal attractions located in the city. Here we take a look at 5 must-see zoos and aquariums in Vegas.

1. Shark Reef Aquarium

This aquarium is home to 100 sharks from 15 various species and more than 2,000 animals, including sea turtles, green sawfish, lionfish,and golden crocodiles. Its most impressive feature is the Shark Tunnel, where you look like you are on the bottom of the ocean on a sunken ship. It also features a small touch tank (for the little ones), giving you a chance to be up close and personal with some of the smaller animals.
