This competition is just for fun.

The rules are as follows I will determine where we start from and that of course will be Dudley Zoo what we now have to do is get to another animal collection by a means of transport that does not cost any money for a fare (no air travel, no ferries, no trains, no buses), so for instance car ride to Birmingham nature centre but the problem starts here you cannot use a car ride again while in that country.
The aim of the game is to get around the world and back to Dudley Zoo. So off we go


Dudley Zoo to Birmingham Nature Centre by car.

next
 
Great idea!

From Birmingham Nature Centre to Birmingham National Sea Life Centre.. by walk... :D
 
this sounds interesting. Does hitch-hiking and stowing away on ships count as legitimate modes of free transport?
 
Birmingham National Sealife Centre to London Zoo by bicycle (c. 164 km: easy)
 
Whipsnade to Yorkshire Wildlife Park in the truck that transports a giraffe.

I have to say I think Adrain1963 cheated by using a car and then declaring them not allowed :p
 
I think we need to get out of the UK if we're ever going to get around the world. I say we kayak to Dublin Zoo.
 
Welcome to Dublin ;-)

You arrived at the day of anti-zoo protest. Situation is getting out of hand, but you step in and save the day by poiting out the protesters false evidence and destroying their believes.. Gardaí is so grateful that they offer you a free helicopter flight to Fota Park. :D

that was the intention when going to London, to get across to "the Continent", but now I'm going to have to "borrow" a currach and sail from Cork, down the river, round the bottom of Ireland and out westwards across the Atlantic to New York to go to the Staten Island Zoo!!


(New country now, so all modes of free transport are back on the board)
 
What happened here? Did we drown in cold Atlantic waters?
 
and from the Bronx I could do that tourist thing where you drive some rich new yorkers car to florida for them whilst they fly - so I would drive the rich new yorkers car to Sea World in Florida..
 
Maybe I've been over-exposed to Jules Verne (and Michael Palin), but going around the world by travelling west feels really odd! :D

And from there we will windsurf south to the National Zoo in Havana.

Whilst in Havana we stow away inside a crate being used to illegally import Cuban Solenodon out of the country for the private collection of Kim Jong-un.

Dodging detection by the many, many guards and militia, we manage to reach Pyongyang Central Zoo.
 
from Pyongyang Zoo we manage to get ourselves appointed as ambassador to Singapore and as such we head off to Singapore Night Safari by Private Jet (Global Express if anyone is curious!!)
 
from the Night Safari we walk to the Singapore Zoo (peering over the fence into the construction of the River Safari along the way!)
 
From Singapore we jump on a seahorse and take a quick gallop down to Australia to visit Crocosaurus Cove.
 
a seahorse??? how small are you :O)

anyway, from Crocosaurus Cove (is that even real) we borrow a unicycle from an sleeping circus performer and unicycle to Taronga Zoo (that's probably a heck of a long way but we can stop for snacks on the way!!)
