Some of our visits to the Henry Doorly Zoo & Aquarium.

 Robert and Zach outside the Desert Dome.

 Zach inside the Desert Dome.  It has a large sand dune to the right as you enter.  Amazing place!

 A beautiful bird that was flying around inside the Desert Dome.

 Zach on the other side of the Desert Dome.

 Robert and Zach in the Kingdom of the Night exhibit.  We were in a cave like atmosphere and bats and other night creatures are on display here.

 Hubbard Gorilla Valley.  They had several silver backs hanging out.
 

 The exhibit had a dome like feature where in extends out into the gorilla area so you feel like you are inside.  There is a silver back with his "back" to Zach.

 Zach in the Lied Jungle exhibit.  It is a 3-story or more building that you can view various animals in their environment on all levels.


 Robert crossing a rope bridge!

 Amazing setting with waterfalls and plant life.  Down below there is water/pools and such with otters and fish swimming around.
