This Mold-a-Rama machine makes a black plastic Gorilla for $2.00 US. It takes two $1.00 bills. At the time of posting, it was one of two Mold-a-Rama machines under a covered cabana vending area. This Gorilla mold maker shares the space with the SA Zoo Mold #1 machine that cranks out brown plastic Komodo Dragons. Each of the molding machines only had one animal per machine.
After entering the zoo from the main entrance, veer left a bit and take the pathway behind the pride of lions sculpture you will see upon entering the zoo. The path will lead you by the flamingos and some bears but will curve slightly to the where the public restrooms are located. This is a transition area that begins the exhibits for monkeys and butterflies. The Gorilla molding machine is between the women's restroom facilities and the Komodo Dragon live exhibit area.
The San Antonio Zoological Gardens and Aquarium will be 100 years old in 2014 and renovations to sections of the zoo are underway in 2013 to improve the exhibits for the big birthday year. Admission cost for Adults (ages 12-61) are $12, children (ages 4-11) are $9.50, Senior Adults (ages 62-up) are $9.50, and children 3 years or younger are free.
