Omaha's Henry Doorly Zoo is known across the country for being one of the best zoos around. Its claims to fame include the largest cat complex in North America, the "Desert Dome" habitat (the largest glazed geodesic dome in the world), and the Lied Jungle -- one of the world's largest indoor rainforests.
