Hello! I'm very happy to be using this interesting platform of zoo chat. I already know about it's existence for a long time, but I decided to register and post very few months ago. Nevermind, let me introduce myself!

My name is David Matos Mendes, I'm brazilian, born and living in the metropolis of Belo Horizonte. As everyone here, I'm obviously obsessed with animals of every kind, and met the wild animals for the first time when I was two years old, at my city's zoo. Since them, many many years past and I researched and learned a lot about a zoo's role in modern times. I have visited many zoos and met many people that work with conservation and environmental education in these institutions, and I plan learn more and more everyday about the ways we can conservate our fauna, and how we can do it.

I hope I can post and answer interesting topics and posts related to all that this platform has to offer.
Now I will let you guys with a few pics of my mentioned hometown zoo wich I took in the many visits i made there. Hope you like it, see you!

Thank you! I'm probably gonna post a lot about BH zoo here :):). I wanna know more about Panama zoos too! I've been in Panama city last year and didn't have time to go to a zoo...have you posted about zoos from your country?
 
Also from the Netherlands : Welcome to ZooChat and indeed great to have another South American ZooChatters because this continent is so much under-represented and has so much to offer in the field of zoos and wildlife !
Enjoy your time on ZooChat and keep us informed ( and share your photos with us ! ) :).

Yes, I have posted about the Summit Zoo in Panama City which is only a rescue for native animals. That's the best you can find for a zoo but there are only native species and not exotic:(
