The gallery has more than 7100 photos at this time some are out standing , its interesting to see lots of exhibits from around the world and what a wonderful resource , well done guys
After posting over 1,000 times here at ZooBeat I've finally gotten around to uploading many, many photos from an assortment of zoos and aquariums.
I spent all day uploading almost 400 photos! I went from zero to almost 400 in the past 24 hours, and there are many shots from zoos that weren't represented here at ZooBeat. Canadian, U.S. and Australian zoos and aquariums have all been added, including the infamous "Platypusary" at Healesville Sanctuary near Melbourne.
I am obsessed with the gallery! I have only visited a few zoos in my life time, and unfortunately, all but the Calgary zoo have been pretty substandard.... these pictures have me wanting to visit a few different, amazing looking facilities from around the world. I've also seen animals on there that I hadn't even heard of before. I think I'm going to go to the Valley Zoo in the coming week to take some pictures to post, there aren't any here and I'd be interested in what people have to say about it.
I look forward to the Valley zoo photos . from verbal descriptions , it sounds very similar to parts of Wellington Zoo
I'll go on record right now to say that the sea lion "exhibit" at the Edmonton Valley Zoo is worse than any other sea lion exhibit on the planet. It is a tiny pool with three large sea lions all fighting for space...and in the summer there is a minute scrap of grass for them to sit on. Brutal.
Yeah, the sea lion exhibit is depressing. When WEM FINALLY sent away their last dolphin, I was half-hoping they'd strike up a deal to take in the Valley Zoo's sea lions, or at least give their own penguins a larger exhibit. Although I don't think any animal should be in a mall, I think they Valley Zoo sea Lions would have liked it more.
To comment, you click on the photo and scroll down and. There is then a text box which you can comment and rate from.
We should have a celebratory thread when we reach 10,000, picking our favourite photo, worst looking exhibit, best looking exhibit, etc...
oh, you wrote that while I was checking... its up to 7950 at the moment. Shall we take bets on who will upload photo number 10,000? I'll hazard a guess at -- snowleopard!
