The outer temperature is only 10 degrees C, or 50 F, animals from Africa do not mind the cold.
Visitors can buy a small bag of food for specific animals. A giraffe gets pieces of vegetables with its long tongue.
No penguins play in the pool. Or they might be waiting for some special joy coming.
Lemurs are from Madagascar. They have a beautiful stripe tail. I wonder it can be used as a neck scarf. Be careful not to get chilblains on ears.
This long-armed ape really has long arms. He suddenly extended his arm and I was almost robbed my camera. It was a close shave. Doesn't he need a camera manual?
A black cow is enjoying the warm sunshine.
I always feel a little sorry for the animals in zoos, but the ones you picture seem content--even in the cool weather. --Jim
ReplyDeleteOh, the Zoo is one of my favorite places to visit. I'm glad you got a chance to go. The giraffe is so grand, I really love this animal. And the penguins are very interesting...and sweet.

The giraffe looks eager to get a treat!
ReplyDeleteI like lemurs and your photos show animals very well.
ReplyDeleteWhat a good idea to buy the food that suits the animals! I smiled at the idea of the lemur tail as a scarf. Maybe you could give a pet lemur some work to do :)
ReplyDeleteLovely to see all of your photo's, I think my favourite is the giraffe.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
Lovely photos of some of the animals in the zoo, and how lucky you were not to have your camera snatched by the monkey - maybe he would work out how to use it :)
ReplyDeleteI love animals !

Dear friends,
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comments.
i too feel sorry for the animals that are imprisoned in zoos but i feel relief when kids face glow by watching them .
ReplyDeleteHere in our country where in main big cities we visited the zoos visitors are not allowed to give anything to eat to animals ,they can only watch them through huge cage like fences .
you captured the animals very nicely .
Happy new year friend!
