Nanjing Zoo


Our visit to the Nanjing zoo was mostly just depressing. Although we saw many animals and there was greenery and a natural setting all around the Zoo, it was obvious the animals were not being taken care of. We saw three Chinese pandas, one of which looked almost lifeless, sprawled out in a corner of it's glass enclosed living space. I didn't take too many pictures but here are a few of the better ones (animal-wise and photography-wise).
yes, that is a bear riding a bicycle. It looked just as unnatural and horrible as it sounds...

  1. Great descriptions Rachel, really sad.
    I am sure there will be a time when the way we watch animals will be a totally different model than these kinds of zoos.
