Zurich Zoo

Whilst considering an excuse to go to the North side, we came up with a trip to the Zurich zoo.
A fantastic day out despite us being there on the same day as "National, how many childeren and pushcairs can you get in a zoo day". I can assure you the answer is lots and lots.
So, onwards to the animals, which I'm not very good at describing.

Zoo with a View

Injured bat feeding was the best bit of the day.

The indoor bit, 25 degrees and 100% humidity and a
fantastic natural habitit for all sorts of things running about wild, including pushchairs.

Tortoise

Lemurs running loose.
They have figured the quickest way to get about is via the structure

Flughund...Flying dog...Fruit bat

Camel, dromedary or bactrian

Elephants.
They get a massive new home in 2014 which will be great as they looked a little sad in their small pen

Snow leopard. No its not white.

Wolf.
Not that exciting considering they are running about in the hills round here.

Lion

Monkey of unknown model

Silverback gorilla

Rhino Saurus
