Year 10 Zoo Trip



Hey There! on the 8Th of April year 10 went on a trip to the Auckland Zoo. It was for science as part of our Ecology studies. I had been looking forward to going for a while, and on the day i was overly excited. When we got on the bus i started taking pictures so that i could capture the whole days advents, sadly my camera was out of battery and started playing up. Luckily my friend had her camera and let me take all the photos i wanted. I love taking photos and i feel like i always need to take them to get the right picture. when we arrived i took a photo of the Zoo's Building, then one of us going in side. It went on like that for the rest of the day. i took heaps of photos. The best part of the day was the lions, they are my favourite animal. I wish i could have one, i sat and watched them for what felt like hours it was really cool. Everyone else didn't like them because they were boring and slept the whole time but when you sit and watch them its quite different. Me and Emily watched and waited, then all three lions came down to the glass. If it had not been for the glass in the way i would have reached out an touched them all, and lost my arm. But it was so cool an there were hardly any people around so it made it even better. I also Liked the elephants they were cool, i love their trunks. All the animals were really cool and more well behaved then some of the students at school.
At 11 we had to go to this meeting thing in a room. it was quite interesting, but the whole time i was just longing to see the animals. i wanted to feed them, i have once wanted to be a Zoo keeper, but i don't think i would want it as a career and its something you need to base your school time on and if i don't wish to stay as one it would be a waste of time. It was a really cool day full of fun and photos, I hope to go back there soon.
