ROYAL OAK (AP) -- The Detroit Zoo is opening its new carousel to the public.

The carousel features 33 hand-carved and hand-painted figures, including horses, birds, frogs, insects, snakes, fish, seahorses and dinosaurs. It was custom-designed and manufactured for the Detroit Zoo by The Carousel Works in Mansfield, Ohio.
It will be open daily April through October. Rides cost $2.
