Kangaroo Kountry - Entrance Sign

August 7th, 2010.
If they are going to teach the youth of Birmingham bad spelling shouldn't they at least be consistent and have it be Koka-Kola presenting Kangaroo Kountry? Kome on.
 
Ha! For some reason your post gave me quite a chuckle :D

Put purposeful incorrect spelling (for no reason other that to be "funny" or "cleaver") is a pretty poor practice in a zoo.

I'm really having a hard time resisting making a joke about the youth of Alabama and spelling.:D
 
I noticed on the website that this area is home to wombats, but no mention of them in your review. Did you happen to see them, and if so, what did you think of the exhibit?

I don't remember wombats at all, and I'm now curious to find out if they were there on the day of my visit.

An excerpt from my review:

Kangaroo Kountry – This Aussie area is sponsored by Coca-Cola and has a well-designed theme centred around “Kakadu Mining Company”. Red kangaroos, Bennett’s wallabies and parma wallabies bound through a large but relatively barren yard, while Cape Barren geese are included in the same enclosure. Nearby is a tiny mine shaft with terrariums filled with toads, tarantulas and other critters, and two other exhibits feature citron-crested cockatoos and brush-tailed bettongs.
