A cheetah sitting in the shade, just hangin' out!
just a random lizard that happened to sneak into the zoo!

I believe this is a kookaburra.

These are either ostriches or emus.
Either way, they are bitey.

Peacock!

No idea.

Not sure what kind of bird that is.

I believe this is a tamarin monkey of some sort.

Flamingos!

Uhm... an emu I think.
