One of the best things about the zoo, was the animals that weren’t supposed to be there… just kinda mooching around like “hey this place is cool, lets chill here”…

Exhibit 1 – the Hippo + Duck enclosure (wasn’t that an ad?)
Exhibit 2 – pelicans near one of the monkey enclosures
Exhibit 3 – cheeky red parrot, on the wrong side of the tropical bird display!

More escapees:
Exhibit 4 – Cookaburra sitting on a fence near the crocs
Exhibit 5 – a feckin turkey who was wondering around the path near the meerkats! (maybe he escaped for thanksgiving??)

The incredibly stealthy and cunning “fishing cat”, didn’t think you’d believe me such a sneaky feline existed so here’s the sign too!
