2007 Summer Vacation -- August 23, National Zoo, Singapore

Another day trip on August 23. This trip we visit National Zoo, Singapore. Honestly, this is our first time to visit the National Zoo in Singapore. The reason for this trip is because we would like to experience a natural and relaxing trip. We spent a day at National Zoo before I leave. We finally have chance to explore the National Zoo of Singapore and we sure had fun!!

We arrived at Singapore around noon. We meander through the Rainforest Walk to catch sight of small-clawed otters before heading past Gibbon Island for a glimpse of our acrobatic apes.

We stopped by at Tiger Trek and caught the spectacular white tigers.

There have an exhibition with multimedia animal facts. We have an opportunity to see a tiger's pug mark, hear a tiger roar and watch a video on tiger bones and how poachers hunt it to make traditional medicine at Tiger Trek.






Boar




House of Hunter!!








As you can see the picture below, I believe those are the tools that hunters used for hunting.

We also hop into the Australian outback!!

Visitors can also come up close to Eastern Grey Kangaroo.
