Last Sunday, I visited the zoo with my family. It was a perfect sunny day to visit the zoo. We reached the zoo at 8 am and saw a huge crowd gathering in front of the gate. Some of them were buying entrance tickets while others were busy chatting and enjoying the weather. We entered the zoological garden and came across a beautiful lake filled with aquatic birds like ducks and white swans. It was a charming sight for us to look at the raft of white ducks on the water's surface.
As we moved further, we saw an enclosure with fowls. Parrots, pigeons, eagles, and sparrows of different colors were chirping. The enchanted music sung by the birds delighted us. We enjoyed listening to it for a while. In the next enclosed space, we saw leopards and lions, tigers and tigress, resting and roaming about. A lion frightened us by rushing towards us when we approached the net of the enclosed area. The roars of the lion were deafening. The look in its eyes was frightening too.
We moved on to look at the den of a tiger. Its sharp teeth and flaring glare frightened us. It started walking towards us gracefully, but its roar frightened us away. We also saw some bears and elephants. The sight of majestic elephants swirling their trunks in the air was a delight to watch. Along with this, the sight of bears happily playing with each other filled our hearts with warmth. Then we came across a garden area where deer and stags were taking their strolls. These animals were very playful, smart, beautiful, and a pleasure to watch. In one of the corners, we saw a huge tree where baboons and monkeys were jumping from one branch to the other. They were very active and funny. They were playing pranks and tricks on one another. Some of them even came down when some people offered them bananas.
Children enjoyed playing by making faces at them. On our next halt, we saw a big aquarium with many glistening colors and size of fishess. Their fidgeting in the water was very delightful to watch. We also saw a bunch of dolphins playing around happily in the water. Just ahead of the aquarium, we came across an enclosure with sad and lonely polar bears. We offered them food to cheer them up and moved on to the next enclosure. The cage of the black
bear had attracted a crowd. The bear was playing tricks and the people were thrilled.
Some people offered him food which he ate happily. Then we saw a tank full of fierce crocodiles and some other water animals. The crocodiles had marked their territory for the other aquatic animals. We also saw a few snakes like pythons and cobras. The hissing of the cobras forced us to move away from that enclosure. After taking one complete round of the zoo, we sat back and relaxed among the soothing fragrance of the flowers in the garden. The soothing, calm wind created a perfect ambiance to relax. We enjoyed the beautiful view with some snacks and beverages. As the sun was about to set, we came out of the zoo, boarded the bus, and left while giving a lingering look at the zoo. Thinking of the beautiful moments and memories, I am still filled with excitement and happiness.
