Today I went on an excusion to the Adelaide Zoo. We went to the Education Centre. It was really fun because I got to see lots of different things. We all sat around in a big circle and we had to make sure that we did not touch the fur in the middle of the circle until we were told to. I got to touch a Snake skin, an Echidna, a Meer cat skin, but not the tortoise. The zoo keepers name was Ruth and she talked to us about naughty people that try and smuggle dead animals into Australia in their suitcase and how they get into trouble with the police. Some of these people try and sell animals at the market, they are the animals with a blue tag. The green tagged animals have died of natural causes and there is a special person in the zoo that looks after them.

I got to see the Hippo. They were eating pumpkins. I saw the Fairy Penguins, Giraffes, Otters, Tasmanian Devil, Seal, Kangaroos and Barbary Sheep. I also saw lots of Rabbits, Hamsters, the Nocturnal House and a Rooster. I had lots of fun today.
