Sketchbook of a Zoo

A fun-filled adventure with teenagers to the local zoo, encountering prairie dog abuse by waterfowl, emu attempting a break-in, rhinoceros food fight, vegetarian penguin and baby jaguar discovering the 'delights' of an electric fence.......ouch!

Decided I really should wear my glasses more often when I declared that the animal galloping along the banking far, far away was a horse - upon closer inspection, said horse turned out to be a wolf, lolloping, not galloping!

Several wolves, in fact!  Well..., I didn't know they'd extended the zoo and got new animals!!

Anyway, despite being the coldest zoo ever and my fingers nearly freezing off, I did manage to do a bit of sketching, enhanced at home with the assistance of photos (so, yes, I cheated)!
