ZOO Picspam!
Feb. 24th, 2009 03:49 pmOk, it's only like 10 pictures, but they were the ones that came out.... so I give you...
( The pretty-a-ok Austin Zoo )
The cool part about Austin Zoo is that it's actually an animal sanctuary - all of their animals were either rescued from or donated by owners that didn't take care of / didn't want them. So even though it's not the most prestigious (and even though they don't have a TON of exotics), they're rehabilitating and providing homes for animals that started out in weird roadside zoos or private homes or from places like New Orleans (they had a couple of wolves that came to the zoo after Katrina).
