Audubon zoo is probably worth the extra travel time.

ZoA is great for little kids. No crowds and a train ride. Only like one or two tigers and one or two other animals but you can get up close and not much walking. An hour would be all you need to see everything.
ETA: never been to BR zoo

Never been to BR Zoo, but Zoo of Acadiana is nice. I grew up in Nola, and while it is nowhere near the size of Audubon, it is surprisingly enjoyable for an hour or two with the kids. They have a white tiger, some giraffes, lions, some bears, different types of monkeys, a crocodile/alligator section, and a parakeet section. There is a small petting farm. As another poster stated, there is a 10 min train ride and a nice playground for the kids. And it's well shaded.

BR Zoo

Zoo of Acadiana is pretty shitty. Like 'sheep separated from someone's back yard by chicken wire' shitty.

Can you still "unofficially" feed and touch the Giraffes at the BR Zoo?

If you want to see old animals on concrete go to the BR zoo.
