Revisited 3: A child once more

How long has it been since I last visited the zoo? If I'm not wrong it has been around 5 years. And today's visit proved to be a more educational to me. Not only did the zoo had a major facelift, but more animals were let loose than before.

Presenting the exhibits..

A kangaroo.. as if no one knows that already.
White tigers.. the biggest cats around. (Panthera tigris)
A wallaby.. it's a small kangaroo (like a prawn shrimp thing). (Macropus sp.)
The skull of an elephant.. huge huh..
Penguins.. this enclosure never change at all.
Bats.. fruit bats I suppose.
Mousedeers, an even-toed undulate... (Tragulus javanicus)
A saying.. see how important conservation is?

Besides.. we learnt much more.. by seeing them live..
Did you know?

Butterfles have only 2 pairs of legs though they are insects. The last pair are highly reduced.

The fur of the polar bear is colourless, not white. Polar bears look white because of the way their fur reflects visible light.

Since tapirs are nocturnal animals, the white patch helps to camouflage them when the moonlight shines on the forest undergrowth.

Not all carnivores eat meat.. You ever see a panda eat meat?

There's such a thing as Old World and New World monkey..Old World monkeys are found in Africa and Asia while New World monkeys are from Central and South America.

An alligator gar is not an alligator.
