Taronga Zoo, Australia

I am slowly forgetting what I have already posted from our trip to Sydney so I have decided that I should try to finish before the year is out.
There is so much to do in Sydney and it's a good idea to kill two birds with one stone whenever possible. After a little research we found out that you can take a ferry ride across Sydney Harbor to the Taronga Zoo. Score!






Bus ride from the ferry.


We're here!


We ran up to this exhibit so excited to see crocodiles in person. After looking at them for a while I looked at the sign and realized that they were North American Alligators. Arg!


Here's a crocodile. Note the more slender nose.


Star Tortoise


Long neck turtle. Weird!


Mama and baby wallabies. So cute!


I love this shot of a mountain goat over looking Sydney.


Who says zoos are just for kids?!


A Meerkat


This picture was so hard to get because it kept bobbing up and down.


A Binturong


Dingoes


Typical male just taking a nap.


This lizard was roaming free and totally caught us off guard!


This was roaming free too and I made sure not to turn my back on it!
