Today mom and I went to the zoo. It had a large variety of animals including a capybara and a pigmy hippo. Capybaras, if you don't know, are the world's rodent. The hippo was pretty big for a pigmy, later we saw some full sized hippos that could 8 of me in its stomach. We saw the sea lions being feed and we also saw a dolphin show with three dolphins. This dolphin jumped about 20 feet to hit the ball. We liked it that they placed the vultures just above two restaurants, that way they always smelled food. The enclosures for the monkeys weren't enclosed and the only way that they kept the monkeys in was by building a moat. Most of the animals lived outside year round, with little caves or covers. Some of the enclosures were two feet below the path so it formed a wall and with an added fence made of wood allowed kids to come up to the animals and pet and (illegally) feed them.
