There are also turtles, some of which are tiny ones that are growing up at the zoo so they can be released when they're big enough that bullfrogs won't eat them.

On the day we went with Miles and Rachel and Keely, it was rainy, and all the animals were sleepy, especially the kitties (well, the one in the bottom center is a ringtail or miners cat, which is related to raccoons and is not a cat).

So, the possibility that I'll be posting more zoo pictures in the near future is pretty high. Especially once I get to spend more time watching the zoo's new star.

That's Samudra (Sam, for short), the new baby elephant. Isn't he adorable?
That' s it for now!
