A VISIT TO A ZOO

PROLOGUE

A visit to a zoo offers us an opportunity to see the wild animals. Due to deforestation and
urbanization, many animals are fast disappearing. It is becoming difficult to see the wild animals
in their natural habitat. Zoo is a place where we can see different animals and birds at one
place. It has great attraction particularly for the children. A visit to a zoo gives us both
information and entertainment. We come to learn about the rare species.

CONTENT

Last Sunday, the weather was pleasant. I, along with my family, visited zoo. It is situated
at a distance of twenty kilometers from our house. When we reached the gate of the zoo, there
was huge crowd there. People were buying entrance tickets. Some of them were sharing their
excitement about the visit of the zoo. We reached there at 11.30 a.m. We bought our tickets and
went inside the zoo. There were a large number of people there.

We first visited zoological garden. There we saw a huge lake in which different types of
water-birds were swimming. The sight of a white duck swimming on the smooth surface of clean
water was a wonderful delight. Then we moved ahead to the enclosure where playing birds
were chirping. They included sparrows, pigeons, eagles, parrots of different colours. Their
enchanting music delighted us much.

There were wild animals like lions, tigers, leopards and tigresses in other enclosures.
We were frightened at the roar of the lions. At the same time it was awesome to see the king of
the forest. When someone moved near the enclosure, the majestic animal began to roar. Then
we moved to the den of the tiger. Its flashing glare and sharp teeth filled us with fear. We also
saw the elephants and bears. Then we came across a big garden in which stags and deers
were frisking about. These animals were very active, sharp and smart. In one corner of the
garden there was a big tree on which a large number of monkeys and baboons were jumping.
Their tricks and pranks were very pleasing. Some people threw bananas at them to which they
immediately tried to catch by jumping down the branches. Children were enjoying by making
faces at them.
We next halted at an aquarium. There were varieties of aquatic animals and birds there.
There were many species of fish. Their fidgeting in water was really very delighting. Next to this
enclosure were kept polar bears who looked deserted and dejected.

DISSCUSSION

Then we moved to a big tank which was full of crocodiles. These mammoth animals
were very frightening. There were other water animals. We saw snakes like cobras and pythons.
Some snakes were very fierce.

CONCLUSION

We spent five hours in the zoo. We took a full round of it and enjoyed ourselves a lot.
We were happy to see all those animals with our own eyes about which we read in books. The
memory of the visit still fills us with thrill and excitement.
