Winter at the Zoo

‘Cause there’s nothing more entertaining than a winter day at the zoo. Of course, not all the animals enjoy freezing temperatures, but hey, we paid to see them! So they better move their lazy behinds from the warmth of their cribs to the open air of the enclosure so we can snap a photo of them.

The Zoo I went to couple of days ago is in Amneville, France. Huge, well organized and boasting a vast array of animals from all corners of the earth. Entrance fee is 27 EUR/adult. This being said, you’re better off going in the summer. But then again, any time is a good time to go to the zoo. Enjoy the photos!

Amneville Zoo, 1 Rue du Tigre 57360 Amnéville les Thermes, France

 

Better follow the arrows so: 1. you won't get lost, 2. you get to see all the animals

 

It's easy!

 

Just tired or maybe bored? Tried shouting at them but they ignored me.

Little restless, hungry monkey

 

The tiger!

 

The hippo about to be fed

 

And look what he eats!

 

Beautiful cats

 

Too busy to pose. Well, elephants...

 

Turtles in the mood for love

 

It's the head

 

And the body

 

And the party

 

The rhino makes such a mess

 

The sun gets in the way. Urgent need of some sunglasses

 

It's lonely at the top

 

The elusive red panda

 

Thank God the skunk was asleep.

 

Some big birds were moving freely

 

Others were having a day at the beach

 

The pony was half asleep

 

And the strangest encounter

 

OMG, it's real, it does exist!

 

The croc was huuuge

 

And the orangutans were in a playful mood

 

The Siberian tiger longing for snow. I guess.

 

One white wolf was thirsty

 

Of course there were camels as well.

 

And some petite kangaroos... wallabies, I guess.

 

And they have lions as well but by the time I saw them, the batteries in my camera were dead. Next time! Or next zoo!
