Last Friday my wife and I took our starting to look like a ball baby girl – Leiyla to the Avilon Zoo in Tiendesitas. It was the smaller version of the zoo actually. I heard that the bigger version (7.5 hectares) is located in damn near the freaking North Pole or something so we didn’t even bothered. We had a great time and I have some badly taken photos for you guys to tell the whole story. Enjoy!
When we got there around 10:30 am, I told my wife that I will be extremely upset and dissapointed if I won’t see any bears inside. I don’t know but for some reason – I am obsessed with bears. Grizzly bears. Polar bears. Panda bears. Bears with chainsaws. Name it.
So when we got to the entrance, I was like: ‘Man, this ain’t no zoo. This is a pet shop! I’m outta here!’. My wife kicked me in the jewels and told me to get myself together and act like my age. I later learned that the entrance was indeed a petshop and the real wild animals are inside the cavelike entrance.
I was actually fascinated with the different creatures they’re selling as pets. They have hedgehogs, superworms, scorpions, red footed tortoises, baby albino pythons and flying rats. Kung ano man yun. Animals you will never have as pets in your lifetime. Because they’re way cooler than you.
So once inside. The first thing you’ll see would be this huge-ass White Tiger. Kimba ata ang pangalan niya. Corni. Just made that up. But man that cat was huge. I think he can swallow me and three of my barako friends all at once without exerting effort. By the way, they’re just lying on the ground. Bumming around. They just sit there. Walk around. Smell the fresh air. Eat. Sleep. Parang Congressman lang. What a life man.
The first level of the ‘Ark’ as they call it, consists of animals that can basically shred your face apart. Lions. Tigers. Bears (WOOHOO!!). Chimps and Gators. They also have a couple of amphibians but we’ll let them be. Because they’re boring. Moving along the second floor is where the fun drops from 100 mph to 0. From watching tigers eat raw meat to watching Guinea Pigs and Goats eat carrots and leaves.
My little girl enjoyed the part where she gets inside the Guinea Pig pen and gets a golden opportunity to feed them. Which was pretty much the highlight of her day.
After a couple more rounds, we decided to call it a day. Not after we had a couple of snaps with ‘Colin’ the Bear. I mean, the Oranggutan.
