Well, here it is, my first review. This one is for the High Park Zoo in Toronto. I've been to this zoo many times before, and my most recent one happened today. The zoo opened in 1893, and is located along a single road (Deer Pen Road). Mine was squeezed in between volunteering The zoo proper...

I don't know if this was some sort of Mandela Effect but I seem to recall seeing Bongo Antelope at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair when I was a little girl. I went along this ramp to see them through a window in a door (I think it's where the area where the horses are warmed up before a...

Just read an article that today Da Mao was showing interest in mating, looks like he's a little late. Apparently he was doing a handstand and going pee at the same time as well as other acrobatic displays.

Heres an informative article that describes the history of Toronto zoo's elephant herd and their present situation. The article talks about the early plans for the herd in the 70's and their journey from Europe (along with a black rhino). Also has some neat pictures when the zoo practiced...

Thought I'd make one thread for my zoo visits, since I go there pretty often and don't want to create clutter :D I had today, and truly had a terrific time! -Red Pandas weren't just highly visible, but were also very active! That has got to be my favorite sighting of them in a long, long...
