Hiya Mamzelle.
You mentioned the Salisbury zoo and what a surprise. I live about thirty miles from Salisbury Merryland.
I love the Cape May NJ zoo which I get to via the Lewes ferry. It has a “boardwalk” that snakes in and out of a forest.
My favorite part of the Salisbury Zoo would be the Fancy Ducks—just a small, plexiglass-surrounded pond/pool with several American ducks (and duck-like waterfowl) that most people never get to see IRL. The Eastern Shore is known for the decoy carving. I think they moved them out at night into a duck barn...
