every ZOO has this relict of old times 
so sad 
I also think (but I am not sure), that once it used to be home for a cougar.
they are absolutely wild and free 
Visit orcas with me! Marineland report
Hi Pals,
I hope you had lovely X-mas, which present or which thing did please you the most?
Also, I wish you all the best for 2024, especially strong health :)
There is also a little gift from my side - report from Marineland Antibes I visited several days ago. For me, it was a long time dream coming true!
This report will have two parts, first one focusing on orcas and dolphins, the second one will cover other species.
I prepared it for my fellow zoo lovers in Czech, so this is a Deepl translate :)
For anybody who is willing to support my zoo trips, please buy me a coffee :aww:

Part I - Cataceans
This is the second truly marine mammal-only park I've visited. And because I think that such an animal collection and enclosures are not something that a common person can see very often, I will discuss them in detail. You will see the pools from different angles to get a really good picture.
Not to be confused: the
Laughing wolves strike hard!
Hi guys,
I promised some more joyful journal last time. I got myself one lovely covid (I am fine, very mild course, just some light cough, cold, running nose, tiredness), so I have time to write some :D
Do you remember Laughing wolves meme? https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/laughing-wolves
As you probably know, it was based on my photo:
I was never happy with quality of that photo, so the fact it made many people smile satisfies me enough :D
But to give it some better purpose, I got in touch with my local zoo and allowed them to use the photo. Haha, they used it for several things: for a tourist stamp that commemorates the 70th anniversary of the zoo, for eco vax wrap for food and recently also for 70th anniversary Eurosouvenir.
Stamp:
Vax food wrap
Zoo souvernir
If you want to buy any, there is an e-shop: https://www.brnoid.cz/cs/zoo-suvenyry
The number of Eurosouvenirs was limited and as it was targeted mainly to collector, some of them even spent the night at the zoo's
Quite a horrible year
Hello everybody, how are you, guys? :-)
I have to admit 2023 has been pretty challenging so far and I almost did not have time or mood for photography.
My grandfather died a year ago. It was rather natural, he was 92 and his health deteriorated slowly but steadily. He had two daughters – my mom and her sister. We have been always extremely close with my aunt’s family – as kids, we played together, both families living very close to each other, spending vacations together. Even when we turned adults, we still kept that relation.
I was always worried about possible consequences of my grandad’s passing – and indeed, there came some disputes over the heritage :(
It was not as rough as it could be, but it was painful enough.
It lasted for months and months and only recently there seems to be some light at the end of the tunnel.
After some strange time, both families communicate together normally now and obviously want to get along again. I even host our traditional Christmas celebration
Facebook update and photos of cute birds!
Guys, hi!
Thank you for your effort, but FB still decided to respond in "Ok, we had 30 days to check your request for control, but we decided to do nothing, so we block your account permanently" manner :XD:
Still, thank you!
I started a new account, maybe you want to join me?
There is an option to follow :) (check bellow, please).
I am very active on Facebook, posting photos from our bio and bird-friendly garden and fish pond and wild birds :) I love to share zoo news and zoo reports. You can learn more about Czech nature, etc. But also my political views, so be warned ;D
I usually post in Czech, but important info might be in English. Also, automatic translators work very nicely!
:eager: :eager: :eager: My account! :eager: :eager: :eager:
And how to follow?
And now, as my thank you for your support, some bird photos I have not published here, but only on my previous FB account.
Have a nice day, next report will focus on Sarajevo again ;)
Bye,
Wox

i feel so bad for these poor animals. this zoo either needs to renavate to give the animals comphertable homes or have it shut down permantly and the animals moved to new better zoos! here in FL we have a zoo too and like yours there are peacocks everywhere and even chickens!
