The Adventures of Kerri & Matt

Kerri is too terrified to come up with a funny caption for this dragon.

Or maybe just to sleepy.

Charles was having a bad day.

He was very grumpy.

He is very old so he doesn’t have many teeth.

And he sometimes seems half senile.

But he is still very big, so you don’t want to be around when he gets grumpy.

And today he was very grumpy (and tired).

His wife, Josephine, is even older.

She was not impressed by Charles’s grumpiness.

The others were keeping a close eye on him.

And often cowering up where Charles couldn’t reach them.

Although occasionally the baby tried to play.

Josephine remained unimpressed.

But lazy.

Gorillas have weird feet.

But from some angles they look pretty normal.

Nandu is almost two years old and turns his nose up at his vegetables.

But not because he doesn’t like them.

That’s just kind of how rhinos eat.

Baby rhino bum.

Kerri went on another zoo adventure. It was cold out so she took a bunch of pictures indoors. Even the snakes were all curled up to keep warm.

The rhinos are very pregnant and will be giving birth soon.

The sloth was looking as cuddly as usual, but again she wasn’t allowed to take it home.

It was awake this time though.

Kerri was surprised to see it wasn’t doing either of the two things sloths do: eat or sleep.

The beaver was also awake. Maybe the cold was keeping it up.

With no trees to chew, he was only left with the leaves that fall into the enclosure.

It didn’t seem too happy about not being able to cut down trees.

It was finished hanging out and decided to head back into the water.

Their fur is so warm and waterproof it wasn’t bothered by the cold.

Okay, so Kerri took more pictures than Matt had anticipated so now he’s just filling space.

We had a rule that all pictures require a sentence between them and I’m not about to be the one to break that plan.

Awesome, new animals. So these guys were clearly just hanging out by the heat lamp.

The frogs are in such a warm humid enclosure they don’t mind wandering around all the time. Don’t they look so cool?

It was probably quiet at the zoo so the baboons were checking out Kerri as she made her rounds through the park.

I was not expecting this angle of photo. It looks super weird with the reflections in the eyes.

Cheetahs always look cool. No babies in this photo though, must not have been easy to spot as that’s the real reason Kerri was walking through this area. Maybe there’s a follow-up post of more baby cats. You’ll just have to wait and see. (The babies were not out. I don’t think they like the cold)
