How bout a few more from the zoo - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

paddyjoe · 06-29-2005, 03:35 PM

Properly inspired by the threads of Paq and Pinkie, I humbly submit some pics from my visit to our local zoo. Pretty small by big city standards, I was struck though at how clean and well kept it seemed, and by how well cared for the animals were. I guess it reminded me a bit of Linus' pumpkin patch, not the biggest, but VERY sincere.....

Anyhow:

Gotta pay to get in first:

Our first visit was to see the world famous two-headed snake:

We've been thinking about a new dog lately......Hmmm, maybe a Hyena:

Dang......the eyes have it!

This guy was eyeballing lunch:

He didn't care if it was beer-battered or not:

He asked that I get his good side:

We walked around the corner just in time to see this bear get his nose bitten off:

Everyone was hungry. She was reaching up for some straw:

And then over to the hose to wash it down:

Hope she remembers me next time I'm there:

This ol' boy was really checking us out:

He liked my joke:

Well, he tried to wave good-bye:

Last one......just some goofy rat trying to moon us:

Thanks for looking guys.

Oh and one more thing.....Try to donate if you can. This forum is really worth it......

The close up on the Elephant is amazing. I can almost feeeel it.

Are you sure he liked the joke, or were you insulting his intelligence?
I like the close up of the elephant the best. All that ruff texture then those delicate eye lashes. great.

Wow... those are some serious action shots... I like the one of the trunk filling with water... it's details like that that just facinate me.

Those are great...I really liked the Owl. Did they have any Vultures there?? Those are another favorite bird of mine.

They did have some, but there cage was so dark, a photo was damn near impossible. Weird looking birds though.

the hyena looks stoned...

Was Fly hiding behind the bushes?

Great shots...

Love the seal picture. Those are my favorite animals. I love how they swim upside down and like to show off. Also, they remind me of dogs for some reason, don't know why. Now, you have made me want to go to the zoo tomorrow. Great pictures!
