Western Plains Zoo visit 7th of June 2009.
One of their hippos in being intergrated onto the main savannah and it's starting off with a small area that they hope to increase slowly and steadily until it as lots of space. The hippo can get out of the bax and small yard that it's in.
I know and when I went for a look at the savannah he was still in there. I apolagise for the bad quality of this photo because I can't find how to turn the automatic flash off my camera so I was covering the flash, behind a glass window and sitting in a moving bus. Out of the 6 photos I took of the hippo this was the best.
I have a question about the savannah for anyone that might know. How long have there been congo buffalo on it? I know Werribee has/had some behind the scenes and was wondering if these moved here from Werribee?
