Thanks Nique - that restaurant of yours looks good up there!

Unfortunately my guests seem to have been scared off the swampland and largely avoid the whole area (despite numerous complaints of wanting a place to sit and eat lol)


:laughing: I guess your wetlands area is too realistic for the guests to handle.

Isn't it nice to get together and have a chat now and again?

Just across from the white rhino is a veritable mixture:


Inside we have Gemsbok and Gerenuk, though they don't seem to like hanging out with eachother


The aardvarks's however, seem quite happy to sleep anywhere...

And that was the scrub section, short and sweet!
On the way across to the desert area you come across these magnificent beasts:


Scientists are actually know trying to get a 'chemical fingerprint' of the rhino horn as a step towards eradicating poaching - in other words if they find a horn on the black market they could figure out where it came from...

Thanks Kiwibuddy : :) :

As promised we now enter the desert:


I was so glad when I found out that Ostriches were compatible with desert, though I've yet to see one bury it's head in the sand lol

Moving on from the camels and ostriches, as you can see these spurred tortoises are thriving, when these young hatch I'll probably have to adopt some of them out to stop overcrowding...


Separated from the tortoises by a large cliff is...


The Fennec Foxes! Cute as ever, I couldn't resist this family photo

The next exhibit we come onto is a desert oasis


The Addax and the Oryx get on famously, these two even appear to be sharing a moment :wub:

If you like I can put this zoo up for download :thumbsup:
You may want to see the rest of it first though... : :P :
Onto the last two exhibits!

The first is a large cheetah enclosure


At first you only see them in the distance, only to have one creep out of the bushes in front of you...

In the words of Rolf Harris, "Can you see what it is yet?" :loony:


The Galapagos Tortoises do enjoy getting a tan...


And here's the overhead without the elevated paths:

Still can't see it? - this one offers a clearer picture

Until next time...:mwahaha:
