My Day at Australia Zoo (DUW)

Had a day out at Australia Zoo on Tuesday. Wasn't a bad day out, they had mainly lots of Aussie snakes on display. There was a very gravid coastal and woma on display as well. They did have a retic python but it was right up the back of the enclosure and couldn't really get a good look. During they're midday show they brought out a few red tailed boas and burmese pythons. Kinda wishing I could go out the back and have a look at what was behind the scene's. Seemed like thats were all the fun stuff was.

Here's a few pics...

Thanks for the pics. are Elephants and tigers etc what old man Irwan wasn't happy with the direction of the place.I had heard that he wanted to keep it a native wildlife place as much as possible.(Apart from gators and boas)

Nice pics Kurto.....

I went to Taronga recently, but none of my pics are worth putting up..... ( due to dirty glass and poor quality pics)

What sort of camera did you use??
