“I know nothing about cameras. I want to take wildlife pictures mostly. Usually from far away. I don’t understand the zoom numbers. A friend has a sx60 canon. It’s 60 times zoom. What zoom is this compared to that one?”

This camera has a 35mm zoom focal length equivalent of 24-100mm. It's not going to give you the reach you need for wildlife photography. Look at Canon's SX70, the successor to the SX60 which I think has been discontinued. It has a zoom focal length equivalent of 21-1365mm. This will give you the reach you need. Or the SX540 if you're on a budget. It's got a similar focal length of 24-1200mm. It's the focal length of the lens that's important.
