The orca, or killer whale, is one of the most iconic marine mammals and a symbol of the ocean's power and beauty.

The Scarlet Honeyeater (Myzomela sanguinolenta), a small but vibrant bird, is a jewel of the forest.
The alpaca is a domesticated species of the South American camelid, known for its soft, luxurious fleece. Native to the Andes Mountains, alpacas have been bred for thousands of years by indigenous peoples for their wool, which is prized for its warmth, durability, and hypoallergenic properties. These gentle and sociable animals are smaller than their llama relatives, standing about 90 cm at the shoulder and weighing between 55 and 65 kilograms.
Alpacas are herbivores, grazing primarily on grasses and hay. They have a unique digestive system with three stomach compartments, which allows them to efficiently process tough, fibrous plants. Their low-impact grazing habits make them environmentally friendly livestock, as they do not overgraze or damage the soil.
Visiting the zoo and learning about their conservation efforts was truly eye-opening. The dedication of the team to protecting endangered species and educating the public is incredible. I left with a deeper appreciation for wildlife and the need to preserve it for future generations.
This zoo is not just about showcasing animals; it’s about making a real impact on conservation. The staff is knowledgeable, and their programs are both educational and inspiring. It’s heartwarming to see how much they care for the animals and the planet. Highly recommended!
