Visit to PARKEN ZOO

15th September 2017

In the morning we had an early breakfast and gathered at Tullinge Gymnasium at around 8:00 am from where there was a bus arranged for all of us to go to the zoo called '' PARKEN ZOO ''.













The bus journey was around one and a half hour. At the zoo we were welcomed by the zoo guide, who then lead us over the tour through the of the zoo. The zoo was divided into different sections according to the continents where the animals belonged originally. We first entered the ASIATISKA DJUR ( World of Asian animals/ The Asian Pavillion)  , followed by AFRIKANSKA DJUR (World of African animals / The Desert House), SYDAMERIKANSKA DJUR ( World of South America Animals / Amazoonas), The world of Lemurs and ended with LILLA ZOO ( The Little Zoo). We were also provided with a very good lunch in the zoo restaurant at lunch time. We were also given a short presentation on how the zoo worked and the importance of conservation of animals. The most important feature of the zoo according to me was that it worked with all the conservation areas and zoos of Europe. The zoo had a variety of fascinating animals like the Visayan Warty Pigs, Clouded Leopards, Sand cats, Cheetahs, Fossa, Flemingos, Lemurs, Spider Monkeys and so on. The most interesting one for me were the Asiatic Lions. Overall it was an amazing visit.
