The picture above is the American bison. There were about three of them at the time I went to the zoo. There was a baby and it's parents I am not sure which one is photoed above. Fun Fact: The bison's thick, shaggy coat is so well insulated that snow can settle on its back without melting
The next two above are the polar bears. Fun fact: A polar bear's fur is not white!! It is hollow. The fur reflects light. The hollow fur also traps the suns heat to help keep the polar bear warm
Above is the grizzly bear. Fun fact: Grizzly bear have brown fur, but hairs on the shoulders and back have white tops which give them "grizzled" look. That is why they are known as grizzly bears.
These seagulls have injured wings. So the Zoo takes care of them and feeds them 2,000lbs of fish each day! That is a lot of fish!
The above picture are the True black and white clown fish. though many people may only know about the orange and white striped clown fish. If you have seen finding nemo, You also may recognize the next fish as well.
This fish also from Finding Nemo! Known as Dory is a regal blue tang. This fish with its blue and black body with a yellow and a little black on the sides is a very playful and fun fish.
The picture above is an giraffe. This one looks like the younger one of the many I saw at the zoo. There were many of them there and I believe this one is the baby of them.
Last but not least here are the penguins. These guys were swimming and laying around when I was there. They seemed to be chilling a bit. The penguins are one of my favorite animals to see at the zoo.
Hope you enjoyed this post!
