  • Entrance to the Philadelphia Zoo.
  • Proud parent tamarin.
  • Giant Shrew, ironically rooming with the tamarinds, even though the shrew is African and the tamarinds are Brazilian! The zoo breeds so many, they scatter them about the various primates' habitats.
  • This tamarin doesn't like having his morning snack interrupted.
  • The douc langur monkeys are both very rare in zoos and very shy. The Philly zoo and San Diego Zoo are the only ones to ahve them in the US. The San Diego zoo group are the parents of of Philly's douc langurs.

  • This tortoise has a wheelchair! From what we can tell, we think his right front leg is weak. Given his size, he's probably quite old. No zoo reps were out, so we're just conjecturing.

  • Jaguar - with one spot! All jaguars ahve spots, even if you don't see them. Pumas are monochromatic - and also known as panthers. Jaguars range through both Americas. Yes, we listened to the zoo rep.
  • Philadelphia Zoo.Gotta love tigers. These are brothers, and were quite active. Love the white marks on the back of the ears to make it look like they are looking back at you even when facing away. Tried to get a HIdden Mickey out of the markings, but I couldn't do it. :)

  • These golden lion tamarins were just amazing! They are allowed to roam free, but because they are so territorial they stay in their little grove. You can walk right through with them.
