Zoo Tours: Amazonia | Smithsonian National Zoo

Үй жануарлары мен аңдар

EPISODE 117
It's been way too long, but Zoo Tours is back in Washington D.C! When you think of the Smithsonian National Zoo, I think we can all agree the first thing your mind does is picture a panda. You can't really blame anyone who does this, BUT the point of this episode is to show the zoo is much, much more than just pandamonium. Another attraction worth seeing is Amazonia. Inside a two storied rural brick building, is a hot and humid passage to the world's largest river basin. You'll find yourself gill to gill with 300lbs fish, explore Dr. Brasil's research lab that let's you feel the SHOCK from an electric eel, immerse yourself in a walk-thru atrium alive with 350 plant species, monkeys, and colorful birds. Stick around to the end for a little bonus content of the adjacent Science Gallery, where there you'll learn how the Smithsonian is helping preserve coral and saving frogs from extinction.

    Wowsers!! Which aquarium for Episode 118 are you visiting next? And try visiting the San Diego Zoo Safari Park, SeaWorld San Diego, & Monterey Bay Aquarium sooner or later! Bubbling Cryptoclidus!🐟 Also 2 zoo trivia questions for you & your girlfriend... 1) How many elephant calves will the Omaha Zoo's elephant herd have this year? 2) When did the San Francisco Zoo finishing building the snow leopards' new exhibit home?

    Well done as usual Zach, but if I had gone there, I’d have been a bit disappointed. I mean, how can a zoo have an Amazonian exhibit and not include the jaguar?

  • @590488
    @5904882 жыл бұрын

    It's interesting that you lead with the pandas as Amazonia was built specifically to draw people away from the pandas. It didn't really work but at least we got this nice building instead of the old abandoned polar bear grottos that were just being used for swimming lessons.

    The sloth is almost impossible to see. I’ve never seen it but I always see them in Small Mammal House. The titi monkey is in its own area due to covid because monkeys can get covid, they want to eliminate the monkey with guest contact.
