Some of my favourite experiences at zoos include:
Getting to see 2 baby pandas in Berlin recently, they were the reason I visited Berlin and it was definitely worth it.
Seeing some keepers at Northumberland zoo introducing serval to each other and explaining what they were doing and the progress so far which ended up in buying a membership so I can continue watching the progress.
At Welsh Mountain Zoo I was lucky enough to be there and see the snow leopard cub exploring outside for the first time, after a keeper came later in the day the mum brought the cub to the window.
