Hey Everyone
Yesterday March 22 I went to the toronto zoo (behind the scenes). It was AMAZING i got to get up close and see all of the animals evan pet some anc clean their cages. I was helping out in the australasia area. They didn't have many herps but, they did have two BEAUTIFUL tree kangaroos. I got to go right up to it and feed it and evan pet it! I also got to hang out with normal kangaroos, emus, horn leaf frogs, frilled dragons, an emerald tree boa, white lip python, some fish and my favorute the komodo dragon. now i didn't get to go in with it but i did get to get close to it and got some pictures. anyways i am going to try post some pictures for you to enjoy.

He he i also forgot to mention, i got to feed, pet and clean the wombats cage. it was really friendly. and the flash didn't bother the tree kangroo i actually caught that pic of it as it was running away. i was turning around and just caught that cute pose. that tree kangaroo is a very timid animal it was hard getting that close to it. they also had a male that was a phyco and didn't like ANYONE. he was held in the back room because he kept on getting out of his habitat. thats all i have to say for now.
