Friday’s For Zoë!


Aloha Zebrinas!
Oh my! What a day I had! I can’t wait to tell you about it. (I would also appreciate it if you didn’t mention this to the zookeepers at Chester Zoo)
Okay so…                                                                                                                                                                                       We had a school come to visit us today! Core, I do like it when we have lots of people coming to the zoo. (Mainly because they admire how beautiful us animals are!)
Anyway, moving on…                                                                                                                                                                     We zebras woke up nice and early so that we could be washed and fed ready for when the visitors came. Zeebee and I love being washed and our favorite shampoo scent is called ‘Jazzy in the Jungle.’ It was a nice sunny start to the morning but it wasn’t long until it was raining, but don’t worry it was only a fine shower!
I heard that the school had arrived! I was so excited. It wasn’t long until some of the children came round to us. Firstly there was 2 girls named Becki and Georgina (well I think that’s how you spell their names) They were admiring our awesomeness and our beauty. I’ve added a picture that I found on the Chester Zoo website of me and Becki so I’ve added it to this blog!
Anyway…                                                                                                                                                                                   It wasn’t long until they had to go and see some other animals to help them with their activity booklets, so Zeebee and I had a plan. We covered ourselves in leaves and we crept out of our pen trying not to disturb any other animals. One we escaped we caught up with Georgina & Becki  and followed them around the zoo park! They never knew it was us! (Zeebee & I are very sorry to Becki and Georgina if you are reading this now)
They started to head towards the tigers so that they could fill in the task on tigers. The baby cubs were asleep it was so cute! Nearby were the penguins and they had to draw a penguin flying through the water. I do say the drawings were brill! There were many more activities but I feel that I may be dragging on a bit because they were to find out facts. However I am going to talk about going to the elephant show and studying the giraffes.
Firstly I am going to mention studying the giraffes which was fun! We went inside the giraffe house to see how they act and find some special features. They giraffes leaned down towards the girls and they were so close to them! So lets mention the elephant show. The baby elephants were playing in the water which was as deep as a fully grown elephant, wow! Grandma Thai was playing with them as well! We also learnt that elephants only have 4 teeth and each one is the size of a brick! Incredible! After the girls completed the activities they had free time to look around all the animals. We went to the jaguar house and saw the jaguar! We also went into the butterfly house, reptiles, realm of the red ape where there was a giant orangutan hanging on the bars! Becki didn’t believe that the hanging orangutan was real she thought it was a blanket! We went all over the whole park but I don’t want to drag on and make you boerd so I’ll leave it there. At 2:30 the girls had to leave the park and go to the gift shop. Oh I wish I could of come but I’m sure that the keepers would notice something suspicious! So Zeebee and I scurried along back to our pen and we were just in time for afternoon lunch.
What a day I had. I hoped you enjoyed reading! I’ll post soon                                                                                                    Zoë xx
