Jardin zoologique de Lille (review & pics!)

Yesterday (July 5th '08) I decided to visit the 'Jardin Zoologique de Lille' in France. It's a free zoo for everyone. There is no impressive animal collection and there are no spectacular exhibits.
Some pictures made that day:


There is a big mixed exhibit for White Rhinoceros, zebra's and antilopes wich is quit nice!



There also is a kind of a reptile building with snakes (common snakes like anaconda's), Aldabra Giant Tortoise (with a sleepy cat in the exhibit from somewhere out of town ). In the same building there are different kinds of monkeys: Pygmy Marmosets, Emperor Tamarins, White-lipped Tamarins.

Near the entrance there's a very mixed gallery of animals: Binturongs, Coati's, Snowy Owls, Ara's, Meerkats, Yellow Mongooses, Porcupines...








When you're around it's nice to visit but I wouldn't come from far especially to visit this zoo.

More pics in my photo gallery!

I've been to that zoo, and it was nice, but nothing special...
