Must have been a lousy zoo. The Species Survival Program that many zoos participate in is rather interesting and it's quite fascinating how the staff keeps the animals active(I think they called it environmental enrichment).

Some zoos suck, some are awesome and reproduce very similar habitat to what the animals should be in. Nice pics OP!

Thanks, I'm still learning the camera(D50). Was my first foray into all manual settings.
