Great post @aaronleang. The hipo looks a little angry 🤣
Thanks @travelfusion 😆 Haha but look cute thou when their mouth is close
Wow! Thanks for the zoo trip! Love it! Because of your funny way of introducing the animals... I now only remember Banjo... uhm... Bongo... LOL... hahahahaha... Love the video too! The penguins there are really obedient while waiting for their turn to eat... Unlike those penguins I see in the Langkawi Underwater World... The penguins there are more hungry I think... They rushed towards the zookeeper with the fish! tip!
Never been to Langkawi still 🙈 I should visit there sometimes.
Thanks for the tips
Yes... Quite a good place to visit... If you visit the Oriental Village, that's where the Langkawi SkyCab is... You will need to spend one whole day there... So many awesome spots to take photos... The 3D Museum is there too... I got no time to take photo... So sad...
I can see a monkey got lost and boarded a train to Taipei main station 🤣
🙈
Lovely post about the Taipei Zoo. We are tossed up about zoos in general. Some are great and some are awful. The photo of the penguins reminded us of our trip to Khao Kheow Open Zoo in Thailand, where the penguins were camped up in a small glass display unit - all 20 of them. It was also unfortunate that one of the penguins had a baby that day and the other penguins (probably jealous, hungry or thought it would be just another mouth to feed) pecked it to death in front of a few viewers. The mother was frantically trying to save the baby by running away with it and shielding it, but there was no safe place to save it when the rest of the pack is against you.
Where were the zoo keepers or staff? No where to be seen.
The purpose of a zoo is to be educational and serve as a research centre. However, we seen too many that serve it's purpose as a for-profit and an entertainment centre.
Sorry, we didn't want our comment to be a downer, however that picture did remind us a lot of that day and the sorrow/angry we felt. To end on a positive note, your description of the Taipei Zoo's information is amazing. :)
Yea true @travelling-two, some zoo are poorly maintained which cause the animal to suffer 😭.
The animals are amazing. Thank you for sharing the photos and video. I should have visited the zoo when I was in Taipei..
Thanks @yingzoe, there will be always next time when you revisit Taipei 😊
The zoo is also good for families. We spent a good half day there waving hi to the animals and creatures. But what followed the zoo visit was a foot massage :-)
Haha true @prch, the walking is much more than shopping in a mall 😆. Lucky I wasn't needed for a foot massage that time
