Day at the Zoo

Saturday we made a trip to the Kansas City zoo. We saw a lot of different animals, anything from antelope to zebra literally. Dallin really loved all the birds, but they were harder to capture pictures of. Some other animals that we saw were a hippo, flamingos, swans, African fighting dogs, iguanas, toucan, cheetahs, wart hogs, meerkats, baboon, crocodile, sea lions, otter, and several types of monkeys are the animals I can remember. There were so many to see.

Not sure why but I thought this porcupine was cute.

Its hard to see but one monkey would scratch the other monkey's belly while he was sleeping.

The elephants were really cool. They had such a huge area for themselves which makes since because they are such large animals. Scott read on one of the signs that the elephants eat about 200 lbs. of food a day. WOW!!

The lions were my favorite part. I'm not a cat person, but they were amazing to look at.

After a couple of hours we ate our picnic lunch and headed home for a nap. We didn't get to see everything because the zoo was so big, but we had a great day!!!
