Thought it might take my mind off Evo being in for his dental today. I love the zoo and try to go at least once a year. Sorry there're so many pics!

The piggies are great - are they just normal domesticated ones or the wild sort (if there is a wild sort!!)

They just looked like normal piggies to me, they were all that browny sort of colour though. Maybe that's what colour they are naturally???
 
Poor Mr lion looks like he is caked in Mud! :evil:

Lovely photos, not that I am an adovcate for zoos though....
 
I haven't been Paignton Zoo for ages last time I went it was WAY too expensive. So a rare treat. Where in Devon are you?
 
Me aand the OH visit zoos quite often. We are fairly local to Howletts but when we visited his grandparents in Devon we went to Paignton zoo. It was really good and within walking distance!

It is expensive, but worth it I think. I live in Torbay.

Aww, lovely pics.
Did you get to see the new baby black Rhino at Paignton? I caught the news story about her earlier this evening... she's soooo cute :love:

No, I didn't get to see the baby, but they had a feed of the webcam set up outside.
 
If you go Port Lympne it's definately worth going on the African safari (£5 each). When we went the baby giraffe came really close to the truck!
