grizabella Posted February 10, 2014 Author Share Posted February 10, 2014 Some pictures from Artis Zoo in Amsterdam... with more on Flickr. I found a lot of the enclosures at the zoo to be too small for my liking, but I was impressed by the range of species, including many not really seen in Australian zoos.

grizabella Posted February 13, 2014 Author Share Posted February 13, 2014 A few pics from my visit to Monkey World yesterday. The centre rescues and rehabilitates many primates from around the world, from laboratories, the pet trade and entertainment industry. I've been a few times and it is one of my absolute favourite places. Most of my photos are of chimps- more on Flickr! Bryan by PTroglodytes, on Flickr Jess by PTroglodytes, on Flickr Cherri by PTroglodytes, on Flickr Baby Thelma was born to Cherri in September after an unexpected pregnancy resulted in twins. Sadly, little Louise didn't make it, but so far Thelma is thriving and it is so special to see her loved by all the other chimps. Thelma by PTroglodytes, on Flickr Ash by PTroglodytes, on Flickr Thelma by PTroglodytes, on Flickr Cherri, Thelma and Patricia by PTroglodytes, on Flickr Seamus is one of my favourite chimps, he's the one who started my interest in apes. :) Seamus by PTroglodytes, on Flickr Thelma by PTroglodytes, on Flickr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VizslaMomma Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Some photos of our lovely Zwala who passed away yesterday. She will be missed. Vale Zwala by She was always a super 'auntie' to baby Zuri, it is so sad that she will never be a mother herself. All of your photos are so beautiful. It's like being at the Zoo in person. That is a touching tribute to Zwala. She appears a beautiful soul. I have heard of other chimps being wonderful Aunties without ever knowing motherhood themselves. Thank you so much for these. I love wildlife photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
