The Dortmund Zoo 多特蒙德动物园


I spent the weekend of mid-July in e Dortmund Zoo in an effort to gain mutual understanding with the local species. The animals are exceptionally friendly. In spite of the drizzle and the sheer coldness, most of them trotted out of their lair and welcomed me with open arms...and open mouths.
I was initially wearing a blue sleeveless Singapore Marathon singlet in the Zoo. But soon I found that everyone was staring at me instead of the animals. In order to re-instate the focus of the people to the right animals, I was compelled to put on another shirt.

周末时候跑到多特蒙德动物园转了一圈，看了不少动物也让不少动物看到了我，虽然天气有点冷还下着小雨，动物们见我莅临都雀跃万分，纷纷走出巢穴，夹道相迎！
我开始在动物园只穿了一件无袖运动服，结果发现大家都不看动物了都看我，为了不打消动物们的积极性我在外面多套了一件，果然大家又看动物去了。

First photo devoted to this monumental marsupial.
We've both got some handy pockets with us.


猪一样的食蚁兽，一直蜷着睡觉，
一个小孩敲了半天玻璃才懒洋洋的抬头示意，接着继续睡


开饭了！另外一只食蚁兽像怪兽一样大摇大摆从外面走进来




这张照片可看出我与食蚁兽的体型比例
From this picture, you can see the aspect ratio of XN vs e Anteater

He's got the most powerful and efficient straw in this world

小食蚁兽很可爱，趴在地上光看背影还以为是条狗，貌似吃的也是狗粮，当狗养的
This cute hairy anteater looks just like a dog from the back.
And it appears to be feeding on dog food as well...
It would be really fascinating to walk an anteater in the street :)


正面看就像食蚁兽了！
The front portrait is still that of an authentic anteater


鱼类杀手 the silent fish&chip assassin

一只神经兮兮的熊疯狂地敲着一扇铁门，估计是嗑药了。
This bear has gone nuts with the door in its hideout. It is trying all it can to knock it down.

这个是星星笼子，不过我把星星挡住了
I have conveniently blocked the Gorilla behind me in the photo

To be honest, this dude looks a bit dumb

好像一家人，虽然其中有个鸟人
Co-habitation of the aves and the mammals



这边貌似流行异类同居，貘们是跟食蚁兽关在一起的



Don't lean too close! Claws r waiting for you over e bar!
