The Best Time of Year to Go to the Zoo March 31, 2010
Posted by Emily in : Daily Life, Family, Little Man Dallin, Princess Hannah, Thoughts, Utah , 2commentsWe took the kids to the zoo.
CUTEST. THING. EVER.
Dallin’s finger was always pointing at something. Always.
This is the baby elephant. I’m not sure how old it is, but is is DARLING. It’s worth making a trip to the zoo just to see this cute little (big) thing!
Baby and mama . . . seriously, it was so cute!
Hannah on a larger-than-life sized elephant . . .
This was one cute monkey . . .
At least Dallin thought so.
Did I mention there was a baby giraffe too?! GO TO THE ZOO! It was adorable too! It nursed and Hannah was super impressed.
The peacock showed off it’s feathers for us and shook his bum too!
Dallin and Hannah LOVED the carousel and the train ride SOOOOO MUCH. Basically, they thought they were at Disneyland.
Go the the zoo when the weather is a little cool but tolerable. The animals are so active! Normally, in the summer (the peak time people go to the zoo) the animals are hiding in the shade, lethargic, sleeping, or hiding in some obscure place to stay cool. If you go when the weather is a bit nippy, the animals are out and about! The lions, cougars, and tigers were all pacing in their cages. And the elephants and giraffes were playing around! Go while it’s cold! Go! Go!
(Just found out that the little baby giraffe DIED 24 hours after we saw it at the zoo! Check out the link here.)
