Underwater at the Hogle Zoo.

The Salt Lake City zoo boasts more than 130 animals species and 800+ animals on site.

That means there's a lot of diversity at the zoo.

I really appreciated watching some of the animals more acclimated to the colder winter days (it was about 40°F when we visited).

This California Sea Lion was undaunted by the cooler temps, robustly swimming throughout its tank.
