poor Mr. Gorilla does not look happy. We have one of the most beautiful European ZOOs in my city but I never go because I can't stand watching caged animals. Just this morning while I was walking around my front yard a truck stopped for a second waiting for some other car to pass and they had a pig in the back ... I stood to look at the pig smiling to it and then I realized it was a butcher's truck..... I have difficulties recovering from such sights....
I am so sorry about the pig. That's ghastly. I can relate. I normally don't do the zoo thing either for the same reason. This one wasn't too bad though. They had decent habitats. The one animal I don't mind seeing in captivity is seals. I feel they're much safer.
I love going to the zoo, sea lions and big cats are my favorites. Thanks for visiting my blog and for following, and I am happy to follow a fellow cat-lover :)
Hi Elizabeth, Cat people definitely need to stick together. :) I have such mixed emotions about zoos. I really enjoy it if the animals are in a great environment and seem happy. Thanks for the follow and comments. Heading over your way now.
Looks like a fun day.
ReplyDeleteIt was. Thank you, Ivy. How are you feeling?
DeleteI feel feisty. I had a killer weekend and now a really fun week (I start my new weeks on Sunday).
DeleteThanks for asking.
How goes you?
Is that Bert and Ernie's Rubber Ducky?
ReplyDeleteSome fun shots. That first fish is weird looking.
Maybe. Now we know where they keep him.

I've never seen a rubber ducky in its natural environment! Thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteHe looked like he belonged:)
DeleteThe gorilla sure looks a bit miffed. Great shots
ReplyDeleteHe probably would have been just as happy if everyone would have went home and left him in peace.
DeleteCool! That is one big turtle...a tortoise, I guess!
ReplyDeleteIt sure is, Steph. I wonder how old it is. How was your vacation?
DeleteGreat photos. Very colorful. It must have been a great experience.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Murees. It was a lot of fun.
DeleteThe rubber ducky looks evil:) Is this in the Gorilla's pen?? That first fish looks like it has a man's face, almost like Donald Trump....poor fish
ReplyDeleteToo funny about the fish comment.
Deletegreat pictures of the animals
ReplyDeleteThanks, Adam. How are you?
