Some More Photos from Marwell Zoo


I have posted a few more photos from our Zoo trip. Marwell is not a big Zoo, but many of its animals are threatened with extinction in the wild. They have several successful breeding programmes and part of the entrance fee includes a donation to a conservation project .This year it is for the Cheetahs.
In the Encounter Village you walk through small enclosures where the animals are very close. It was lovely to see the little Joey peeping out of his Mother's pouch and to be able to get so close to the Tamarins.

Whata cute kangaroo mother. Do I spot a little baby?
