Australia Zoo Pics (Heaps of pics!)

I've been meaning to upload these pics for quite a while now, so some-what 'inspired' by Ewan's thread, here they are!
These were taken mid January when I went on a holiday to Qld (Well dah, Lol ).
Sorry the quality isn't too good (or the pics for that matter Lol), they were taken on my phone and I ain't no professional.

First up! Great shot of a Scrub python yawning or re-positioning his jaw! My sister took this as soon as I walked off to the next enclosure, when she came over and showed me the pic I felt like banging my head against a wall LOL

Echidna

Cutest piglet ever from the Animal Nursery!!

Fierce Snake

Shingleback

Alligator

Cute wombat drinking

Woma

Spotted python

My pathetic shot of the RBB

Skelly bones of a reticulated python and a pig I think it was

GTP's



Carpet python

I know NOTHING when it comes to venomous snakes Lol so can't name these


Spot the eye!





There are water dragon's all over the place! Some are so used to people that you can go up and touch them


Shingleback again

Cassowary

Koala

Graham the croc

Komodo dragon

Fierce snake again

Whoa, sorry for putting up so many pics Got slightly carried away Lol
I just realised most of them are huge lol, if anyone wants me to resize them so they fit on the page properly just let me know and I'll do it. I know it is quite annoying having to scroll across to read the writing or see the rest of the pic!

Anyway, for anyone who is thinking about going to Australia Zoo, do it!! I loved it! Going back in April I think

Naww, I like the wombat one! It's cute

I think the first pics of venomous snakes are of either mulga snakes, or tiger snakes. But I'm a venomous noob too XD.

Damn, I wanna go to Australia Zoo

The snakes you were unsure of in order were the first two pics were of a King Brown snake (same snake)

3rd pic - Lowland copperhead (I think)

4th pic - Eastern Tiger Snake

5th pic - Coastal Taipan

6th pic - Eastern Brown

Love going up there, what ever happened to the proposed APS meet up there?
Of the elapids you were not sure of i think they are:

1: Mulga,
2: dunno
3: Tiger
4: Coastal Taipan.

Currumbin wildlife sanctury has some nice herps too, infact i may post a thread up with some pics from my recent trip there just for something to do.
