A visit to the zoo of Melaka...

I've always love to go to the zoo. What about you? Well last weekend after two nights in Gemas, I decided to go to Melaka just for fun. Along the way to the Melaka city centre, I passed the area of Ayer Keroh. As the Melaka zoo is there and the last time I went there was probably 20 years ago, I decided to pay a visit. Here are some pictures taken there... Come! :]

Frankly there's quite a lot to be seen here at the zoo but I didn't take much pictures. In fact at first I don't want to take any picture, until I saw this owl inside a cage. I always found owls looking quite funny with their big eyes staring!

Then there's this animal, can't remember the name. I think it's a type of marmoset. Whatever, it's not a monkey, it's a marsupial...

Now this is a monkey, a type of it... Well almost, because it's only the remains... The skull of an orang-utan. Haha! Don't you just love the way it looks and smile, haha! :]

Oh... These are the animals at the zoo's part of safari...
Just outside this safari is an observation tower...

A look from on top to the food and drink stalls nearby...
A look towards the city centre...

And then a look towards the safari itself...

Here is the Malay wild ox called seladang... Pretty fierce animal this is, twice or three times the size of the biggest regular ox!

While it can be fierce looking, on hindsight the seladang can look rather endearing. Enough of the pictures from the zoo, let's move on...
