African Safari

I am 6 months pregnant and want to take my daughter either to the toronto zoo or african lion safari this weekend. (it will probably be Holiday Monday judging the weather forcast). I can’t do much walking and was wondering, is it better to take my 20 month daughter to the zoo or African Lion Safari. Which will she see more animals from the bus at African Lion Safari or the zoo? Also any one know if either will be packed on a holiday Monday?
