I am a great animal lover. I just love all kinds of animals, both real and imagined. :)

Thank you for sharing proper education with facts about the animals, as well as showing concern toward their enclosures & how us as visitors being super hands on can be a negative impact on them when feeding/interacting incorrectly. :) It's always great to hear you get so excited enjoying animals! Also, I'm surprised how the other zoo's group of parakeets pecked you and even drew blood. :(

I try to mention the importance of the treatment of the animals. Hands on interaction is good if it's educational and the animals are never forced. I was very happy to see they are building better habitats for their larger animals. I always mention the importance of supporting your local zoo's. It really helps make the zoo better for the animals and the guests. I have been inside lots of bird aviaries, this was the only time I i was pecked like that. A few of the birds got a little too excited I guess 😕

Wow! You actually got the kookaburra laughing on camera! Great video, Tom!

We just went here because my brother saw your video and we only live an hour away from it. It definitely exceeded my expectations! You missed the hyena though that was near the lion enclosure

Actually, the first cat you saw is called a "Caracal" and the second one you saw would be the Bobcat. They are not the same cat. Can't you tell the difference?
