The zoo

One Tuesday, (which was the Tuesday after Labor Day) we had a homschool field trip to the San Antonio zoo. We went with a friend who had zoo passes that they got for Christmas. The first thing we saw was the flamingo.
We learned that flamingos get their pink from the pigment in the shrimp and 
algae that they eat. Then, we went to see the spectacle bear. The reason it's called a spectacle bear is because it has spectacles around it's eyes. Next, we went to see the Komodo dragon and the python.,

I'm pretty sure they don't put them in the same room, otherwise they probably eat each other.After that we went to see the monkey's. When we touched the glass, the monkeys jumped on the glass and started smiling at us! Last we saw the crocodiles. The The crocodile and the crockadial snapping turtle in the same cage because they won't mess with each other.
