Taronga Zoo Another Taronga update 2010

Aren't you in Sydney and thus able to take all these pictures for yourself?

 

And there are already plenty of pictures of those animals in the Taronga gallery.

 

its ok i can get the pics for him i do not mind

 

I was going to go today but decided to go after the next Asian Elephant calf is born-probably next (Summer) holidays

 

I gather that, but I would just like some new pictures of those particular animals and there are absolutely no pictures of the exhibits themselves in Serpentaria, which I havent seen for a year

 

If you are interested in zoos and animals why wait so long between visits

 

That is true, I could go on weekends some time, but I have to convince my mum who is not a real zoo person to drive me to Taronga, and she prefers going in the holidays.

Also, for the past school term I have had at least 5 assignments and have not had the time to go

 

Thanks I understand. Maybe a little time out (at the zoo) could help you with your school assignments

 

That's the reasoning I go by.

 

Yes, that has definately helped me sometimes.

 

OK just got back from the zoo first the new male tiger was out he seems comfortable in the exhibit he was playing with toys and swimming in the pond. the gibbons where not in the exhibit so i did not get to see them the chimp exhibit is coming along well with the new public building all built just needing i bit more and it should be done the loop track next to the south american exhibit is a ticket area and a entrance in to the entrance building but currently being used as a walk way to the sky safari the new entrance has started beige built with the frames for one of the building all set up ready to go. seen the new seals in the seal show but i would not call it a seal show more like seal training show also gung did not even leave the barn today he spent the day rocking back and forth in the barn thats all

 

I'm a bit behind. Which is the new tiger?

 

All I know is that his name is Satu

 

Thanks for that

How did he interact with Jumilah?

 

HEHE. I think so!

 

I'm not sure how satu can be considered new as he has been there for at least 2 years now....

 

he was not in the exhibit with jumilah they are keeping theme apart 4 now

 

no wonder I didn't know about the 'new'tiger.

 

So they rotate them from off-show/on-show?

Where did he come from?

 

yep i will put some pics up of him soon and sorry i dont no where he is from
