Normally, the Zurich Zoo closes its doors at 6 pm, but sometimes you can stay a little longer. As some animals are more active at dusk, it is the perfect time to visit them at the zoo.

eins... zwei... drei Robben Babys!

Ein kurzer Tripp in den Zoo trotz schlechtem Wetter hat sich als ein Geheimtipp entpuppt: Drei süsse Robben Babys haben fleissig Schwimmunterricht genommen - oder eher zwei, der dritte hat zusammen mit seiner Mama vom Trocknene aus zugeschaut.

Grosses Geflatter bei den Habichtskäuzchen

Ein Zoo Besuch mit ganz viel Geflatter. Nicht nur die Habichtskäuzchen waren fleissig am Fliegen, sondern auch die Storcheneltern, die Enten und Gänse - und die Reiher waren sich am Erholen.

Gecko hier, Gecko da, 28 Geckos!

Die letzten paar Besuche in der Masoala Halle waren jeweils "Gecko arm"... Das wurde bei diesem Besuch definitiv alles wieder gut gemacht!

Ich glaube nicht, dass ich jemals soviele Geckos während eines "Durchgangs" gesehen habe.

Am letzten schönen Herbstwochenende sind wir noch einmal in den Zoo Zürich.

our good-by to the snow leopards

We wanted to see the snow leopards before the Zurich Zoo starts its renovation. The weather has been a bit unpredictable lately, so despite the forecast, we gave it a shot... The forecast was accurate and it rained to whole time...

Newborn among the seals

Newborn among the seals: On the 28th of June, a little seal was born, and two weeks later, we admired it.

He is a total cutie, an excellent diver, and also a bit clumsy while swimming!

Playing Gelada baboons and more

On a beautiful day, we went to the zoo. The Gelada baboon young were playfully romping around, and the red ruffed lemurs were busy eating in the Masoala hall. It was an exciting trip, with a slight sunburn as a souvenir.

Walk through the Masoala Hall

A bit of sunshine and lots of animals: T

he spectacled bear foraging for food, the coatis waiting until he was gone, the little panda observing us just as we observed him...

Simply a beautiful morning at the zoo!

First visit of the new year

First visit in 2023! The weather is very changeable these days: first it was okay, then nice and sunny, and in the end it was wet and windy...

The animals were also rather sluggish, understandable. I would also prefer to retreat to a tree and snuggle into my fluffy fur!

Birthday visit to the Zoo

A little bit of Zoo before the Rain starts

This summer, the weather was unpredictable and often rainy... Today, we were lucky to take advantage of the few hours of "sun" and visit the zoo.

Nibble, nibble, little mouse... Who is nibbling there?

Interestingly, we always manage to observe some animals during feeding time. This time, we were able to see the otters, although not while they were eating, but playing instead.
