No a public collection
Drill's mini reviews
- Thread starter drill
- Start date
I know i was joking
I mean, given the fact you're heavily padding out your collection list with duckponds, places holding few-to-no live animals, and other dubious places no one has ever heard of, we have only your say-so that you haven't been including private collections too
Moreover, the fact you've been somewhat evasive about when precisely you have visited places and (in the past, when listing collections you have done the same day as your post) have given pretty ludicrous itineraries up-to-and-including eight collections across three states in a single day, raises definite questions about how many of these places you have visited full stop
Pretty sure Georgia is better known for Whale Sharks and mantas than their standard run mammals.
You're entirely skating over the fact he contradicts himself with each successive sentence about Mystic
Sentence 1: Marine mammals are the main attraction.
Sentence 2: Despite previously saying that marine mammals are the main attraction, he now states that the only animals of interest at the collection are frogs.
Sentence 3: Despite previously saying that the only animals of interest are frogs, two of the three species he specifically cites as a highlight are.... drumroll please.... marine mammals!

You can probably cut drill some slack and say that he wasn't saying that marine mammals are the main attraction and then say that his only animals of interest at the facility are frogs, it's probably more likely he was talking about the rest of the facility besides the rare marine mammals. He could have worded it a lot better but that's what I interpreted from that.

Where did Drill say that they visited collections #231-238 on the same day?
I disagree given he lists two marine mammals as highlights before listing one frog. Also, kind of hard to cut someone some slack when their average review is about three sentences that tell us very little. For example the "cat" at Extreme Exotics is presumably their Clouded Leopard. Also the recent uncertain camel, which is not hard at all, and their Dromedary is prevalent on the place's social media.
Still leaves his comment about Georgia as problematic, given the Whale Sharks and Mantas are the stars at Georgia for just about everyone.

No. The "Frogs!" exhibit.
Yes, it was.

... and now I'm mad. I thought it was only the 4d movie and no animal exhibits. I even asked the worker at the counter and he didn't mention live animals. My apologies everyone.
Do the reptile exhibits also cost extra?
They started charging for it this year. The doors on the left are the theater, the ones on the right are the exhibits; they have arrows pointing down above the doors.

Well drill has kind of a long notable record of interesting zoo counts and reviews haha.
Any captive animals at all?
Yes
Back to tiny collections as just mentioned.
Pretty sure Georgia is better known for Whale Sharks and mantas than their standard run mammals.
Stretching for zoo status here imo.
Pretty bare minimum here too.
I've not been, but I can think of quite a few more unique collections from what I know of the place.
Well, it has a few domestics anyways.
Maybe it counts?
Apparently to be a zoo just takes a koi pond.
Two species haha.
One unnamed captive species.
A B+? Nothing out of the ordinary but a lifer?
Sounds great...
Pretty sure close to a third of drill's listed zoos have five or fewer species. Everyone's entitled to their own opinion, but I do think drill stretches the concept of a zoo a great deal - one of my fish tanks has more individual animals than some of the listed facilities.
Also the unknowns listed as of late are interesting too, with "dromedary I think" and "red-tailed hawk?" Pretty easy IDs in both cases.
It was a cat.I disagree given he lists two marine mammals as highlights before listing one frog.

A single House Cat is a zoo now? Go to any neighborhood where people let their cats out and pad your zoo count quickly.

Do most neighbors have an albino alligator?
No, but you counted a "collection" with only a single cat earlier in the thread. If your definition of a zoo requires an albino alligator, then your definition is even weirder.
Bearing in mind he did not specify domestic cat - therefore it could be anything between a Rusty-spotted Cat and a Tiger.
Though most likely he saw a Bengal Cat then, as seems to be their preference. They do have a Cloudie, among a few other exotic cats, now at a more zoo type location that is tours only I believe.
Giving an exceptionally vague and open-ended answer to a question when responding to people querying your tendency to give vague, open-ended and non-committal information rather gives the impression that a) you are deliberately trying to wind people up and b) your posts are even less reliable than some of us suspect.
If so, knock it off
if you want to impress people and get them to take you seriously, this really isn't the way to go about it.
