Some people don’t like zoos, but not me. Sure, I’d love for wild animals to be able to roam free in the wild, but sometimes the safety of a zoo is needed. Plus, it gives animal lovers like me a chance to see these animals up close and relate to them.
Usually, dogs aren’t allowed in zoos, but I guess because I’m a minor celebrity, I was allowed to tag along with author and Our Author Gang member, Toi Thomas, to the Virginia Zoological Park, also known as the Norfolk Zoo.
It’s a pretty cool zoo. There’s a petting area for farm animals, a reptile exhibit, an African and Australian exhibit, and so much more. Plus, there’s a train. Who doesn’t love a train? Since Toi is a zoo member, we go there a lot and are always pleased with the experience. No matter how many times we go, though, the red panda is always the best.
Some say the red panda is a link between the Asian panda and the North American raccoon, but I honestly don’t know. What I do know, is that they are really cute.
