Singapore Zoo

Hmm, my last visit was in 10 March 2007 with ZhenRu and Tricia. One year pass so quickly, and Zhenru now is in Australia and Tricia, lost contact with her. Thinking she is also busy with her studies ba.

26 April 2008 - Last paper

Think did not perform very well and higher chance to fail the module. Anyway, it is over and i have put in my very best le. This subject is known for the highest failer rate. Michelle, Kaplan classmates sms me at abt 4pm and asking whether at night got any date or not cos they going to have some gathering. OK, did join them. Venue:- New Asia Bar at Swissotel, Club 72. High till 3am then reach bach home. Scenery very nice up there. Able to the the Singapore Flyer but heard from them that the response is not very good and crowd is not there. have anyone of you been there? Share you experience with mi.

They went out for supper but i didn't. Tml morning, Zoo, so have to wake up pretty early.



Sleep for 4 hours.

Reach Zoo at abt 11am, feel that it is not so crowded not. Maybe the ticket is pretty expensive. $16.50 for adults, but i got 50% off for 5 adults. So bring my parents and ah ma to go.




I find that everytime i go to the zoo, there bound to have "the very first time". This is what i call experience.

Pics speaks a 1000 words.

Are you ready to Start the tour?(fail to capture all the animals as memory space and some of them i don like)

Show you some intertesting pics and places with explanation.

The polar bear. Laying lazly there. The place is cool so rest there for our lunch. 1 pm is the token feeding so stop for it to watch it. "First time" to watch the token feeding. I thinking the polar bear knows his lunch time is there so some how like waiting here and there. We only have 2 polar bear, one male and the female is his mum. And the male one (forget his name) is born in Singapore Zoo, the very first polar bear to be born in the tropical. I am proud of it. Are you?




The Clock strike 1. The keeper is here. One on top of roof and one is standinf infront to give a little speech. See they band ppl from standing infront as it will block the view of ppl sitting. We are sitting in the last row.





First time see the ploar bear so active. The Zoo feed them with meat, fruits - watermelon and fishes. i remember is 15kg of meat daily and 3 "live" fish. They throw the fish and let the polar bear catch it. Isn't it interesting for the visitor to see but poor fish.

Capture the interesting photo, guess what the female polar bear are doing....



Shitting... Really, i saw it.

Next, saw a poor fox turning around and around his area.. POor Fox, alone...



1.25pm - Lion feeding time. Long long time did not manage to c the lion and lionness as they are hiding somewhere in their enclosure. Wow, we only have 1 lion and 4 lionness... He got 4 wives... Guys are you envy of him...haha. I think the lion like quite old le... wondering is it the one that i saw 19 years ago, i still got the pic. That is the first time i go to Zoo, when i was about 3 years old.







Beside the lions are the Giraff, one of my fav. animal. 3 of them. Isn't they elegant... Long legs and neck and walk gracfully.




Next, to the snake enclosure. Appear that ther are some token feeding. It feed the kind cobra with mice. Find it disgusting, no photo!

Then to the fragile forest. Where you can see animals e.g. duck, mouse deer walking, climbing e.g. some monkeys, but they not really monkey, hee hee don know what is it call and flying around e.g. Bats, butterfly and parrots. Saw the hanging birds pass urine. So funny, Wow is got alot of "Chai" that days...





Next, pass by Ah Meng Tomb. The Singapore Zoo Icon. Resting there in a very nice place. I told my mum that i did not c An meng, but she say yes, maybe when i was young...Think so ba, and at that time maybe i saw him but did not know he was Ah Meng. So this time round, saw him but....he is not alive.



Only a status build according to his size.

Saw also the penguins and the Mischievous sea seal, it was after the show and the seal was there to Kiss the visitor but they have to pay $5 to have that Kiss and take photo. Good business idea.




Just nice for the Elephant at Work Show. I like that area, very thailand feeling. First time seeing the show. Last for 30 mins, showcasing how strong those animals are. Visitor can also feed the elephants with fruits. $5 for a basket of fruits.






The time is 4.00 when we leave the elephant enclosure. We are close to the Kangeroo, and the token feeding is at 4pm... Miss it when we walk there. They also allow feeding but also pay loh.. Same $5 for half cup of some dry food.





Last but not least, THE WHITE Tiger. My Favourite animal of the Zoo.... They have blue eyes, wearing blue contact lens

3 white tigers. One sleeping, 2 in the water. Maybe too hot... cos selom see tigers soak in the water.... haha, they are having sauna.!!!




They have new toy, did you see the 2 container tight together...ya that is what i refer to as their new toy. The 2 white tiger loves it and fight for it. Intertesing.




See they are pulling, guess who wins....

The tiger on the left of the pic. The right one appear to be smaller in size.





The losing tiger later still went over to snatch the toy, but the winner tiger knows it and later chase the losing one into the water again. That is what i know till i left the place. Hate to go... Will come again...

Leave the place ar about 5.15 pm...




As usual, Ben and Jerry Icecream - this time, strawberry cheesecake. I love it.

Advertiement: Ben & Jerry is having FREE CONE DAY on 29 April 2008. I am not sure does it apply to all the outlet or only at the zoo.
