Lynx

I really like these Canada Lynx!  They look like they have the typical attitude of a cat, but their big, overly fluffy paws make them seem a little more cuddly.  :)

Lions Basking in the Sun

Today is World Lion Day!  I love watching lions, even when they are just laying around, basking in the sun.  Lions are so majestic!  :)

Other Black and White Monkeys

I am not sure what type of monkeys these are, but they sure are cute!!  I especially love this little guy with his giant afro!  :)

Colobus Monkey

This happy little guy was being silly for the camera while he ate.  :)  He was so cute as he stuffed his face with handfuls of lettuce.  :)

Swamp Monkey

This monkey is seriously adorable!!  I thoroughly enjoyed watching him play and eat as he watched me take pictures of him.  :)

Lions

Lions are so amazing!  I think it is quite obvious why they are called the King of the Jungle.  I love watching them as they roam around their enclosure.  I thought it was neat how this lion, Bill, rubbed his face on the rocks and trees just like my little house cat, Penny, rubs her face on everything in our house.  :)

Capuchin Monkey with a Pine cone

I had to make a separate post for this little guy that was playing with a pine cone.  It was so cute!  :)

Capuchin Monkeys

Does anyone else just adore these monkeys the way I do?!??!  I love watching them as they interact with each other!  They are awesome the way they care for each other!  And watching them play together is obviously so entertaining!  :)

I love the look on this monkey's face!  I don't know what he saw when he was looking up, but he sure does look disappointed.  Hahahhaa!  :)

There are two things I want to point out in this picture.  The first being that this monkey appears to have dirt or something worse all through his hair.  The second being that this monkey is glaring at me like I did something wrong.  Hahaha  :)

Baby Elephant

I fell in love with this little baby elephant as soon as I saw him!!  I don't know how old he actually was or what his name is, but he sure is cute!!  I loved how he was doing everything that the adults were doing!  He was trying so hard to fit in with the group!  Haha!  :)

Elephants

I really love elephants!  They are so big and impressive!  This one seemed to be much older than all the others at the zoo.  It's eyes portray so much wisdom, memories, and experiences.
