Members of the Houston Zoo got a sneak peek of the new African Forest this week. Finley and I set off on Friday morning to see the new rhinos and chimps, as well as to see the giraffes new home. We first stopped to visit Finley's favorite meerkats, but then it was off to the African Forest. We took a new route to get back there, but we did stop to visit the lions, tigers and bears along the way. Finley was noticeably unsettled when we entered the African Forest. There were drummers and dancers, she wanted no part of it. She held my hand and asked for "more animals". She wasn't so into either the chimps or the rhinos, but she was delighted to see her giraffe friends again. Hopefully, it will only take a visit or two more for her to get into the excitement of the new animals.
