Adelaide Zoo

Was in Adelaide yesterday for work, and managed to squeeze in about 90 mins at the zoo.

American Alligator


Aruba Island Rattlesanke


Binturong


Meerkat


Dwarf Mongoose


Purple-Crowned Pigeon


Red-collared Lorikeet


Malleefowl


Black Gibbons, female and male


Siamang


Hunting Dog
(photographed through 12.5x12.5mm mesh - flash caused the washed out look down the middle of the pic)


Hippo

a hint for the hippo next time your at our zoo and taking a photo of the hippo....

put your hands out in front of you, one on top of the other, clap them together and open your hands (one arm up and one arm down) and he will open his mouth for you!
