    Hello Guys, i Hope that i can visit several of the following Zoos here in Germany but due to the Corona Virus i dont know If it is possible but here are the Zoos that i hope to visit in 2021.


    Wilhelma Zoo Stuttgart:

    This Zoo is my Home Zoo because the Zoo is only an hour from where i live. I visit this Zoo at least 1 time Every year and i Plan on going this year when the new Australia House and maybee the Bird/small mammal House are finaly Open.

    Animals i want to See:

    Kaka Parrot, Kirk Dik Dik, Greater Roadrunner, Naked Mole Rat, Queensland Koala, Goodfellows Tree Kangaroo

    I want to visit the Animal Houses again that where closed on my last visit last year due to the Corona Virus.







    Heidelberg Zoo:

    I have visited this Zoo a few Times but i have never Made good Pictures of this Zoo. I Plan on doing Exhibit Photos because on the Zoo Chat Gallery there are Not that many Exhibit Photos of this Zoo.

    Animals i want to See:

    Foosa, Crowned Sifaka, Asian Golden Cat, Tufted Deer, Ermine, Striped Skunk, Stellers Sea Eagle, Southern Ground Hornbill

    Tomorrow i do the Zoos that i have never been to i only say, Linnaeus Mouse Opossum and Sudan Cheetah.

    And now i have a little Quiz for my fellow Zoo Chatters and i want to know which Zoos do i mean?

    This is a Zoo that i do visit at least 1 Sometimes 2 or three Times a year. This Zoo has wonderful huge naturalistic enclosures that are very spacious for their inhabitants. I Like their Walk through Aviarys that are so large that you can Walk through the Woodland Birds Aviary and you can Not See their black Storks. The only Enclosure which was Not visable during my visit was the bat Cave with egyptian fruit bats.
    But i did See some of the smaller carnivores that are very hard to Spot Like the Racoon Dogs and the Arctic foxes.
