The Louisville Zoo



We went to the Louisville Zoo. We saw all kinds of animals. Here are some of them.


We saw Orangatans,


Kamodo Dragon,


and we saw the rare white alligator named King Louie.


We saw a beautiful jaguar,


a baby gorilla with its mom,


the endangered pygmy hippo,


and meerkats.


We saw elephants and we got to see them perform. Here's the Asian Elephant carrying a log. There was a baby African Elephant with its mom there. The baby was doing tricks too!


We saw a baby Bongo with its mom.

It was really fun and we saw lots of cute baby animals.

My Pets

Thought you might want to meet my pets.

My Dog - Vegas
She is friendly and likes to play with a rope toy. 



My Cat - Clementine
She is sweet and whenever she gets scared she jumps like five feet in the air.She'll knock everything off your desk if her food dish is on it, because she thinks you are going to steal her food.

Clementine likes to stalk my hamster.

My Hamster - Whiskers
He loves to run on his wheel. When I get him out I let him run through paper towel tubes. 
His favorite food is sunflower seeds.



My Fish - Midnight
She swims and swims and eats. She's lonely.

I love my pets.
