Spent the day at the Austin Zoo, which is a rescue sanctuary zoo.  Therefore, they do not have a great number of animals, but the animals that they do have are being rehabilitated and taken care of.  I have too many photos to put on here, but you can view them at http://www.snghere.com/austinzoo.html.

my favourite animal to visit at this zoo - he, and his 2 buddies, will tongue wrap carrots from visitors all day.

flamingos  (Phoenicopterus ruber)

baby alpaca

Snowy Owl (Bubo scandiacus)

These are some pics from a recent visit to a nearby private zoo.  Some of the enclosures are not the greatest, but inspite of that, they have a very successful birth-rate. 

Savannah Monitor (Varanus exanthematicus)

Zebra very anxious to come over and see us

Eland (Taurotragus oryx)(there is a baby in the herd, somewhere)

Vervet Monkies (Chlorocebus pygerythrus)    I was really saddened to see these guys penned in like that.

I love this thread i love seeing what everyone has done because it so cool and i love the animals!

Here are some pictures from our recent trip to the Fort Worth ZOO along with the little critter who rode the Zoo Train with me - my son:

This is the only picture I have of any animals at the zoo, the picture was taken with a camera phone before I got my digital camera. The animal is an ocelot, the place is Cape may county zoo in New jersey.

I am a member of the Toronto Zoo and I get to visit it every month or so. Here are some of my pictures from my various visits:

This is Jerroh, and he is six years old. He doesn't have a mane because he was neutered, and despite the fact that he suffered an illness as a young cub, he's the biggest in the pride and dwarfs his 14 year old (?) father, whom I'm till trying to get a good picture of.

I believe this is Thika, one of the six female African Bush Elephants:

Malayan Tapir

North American Moose:
