Visit to Delhi Zoo- Last Sunday I visited Delhi zoo to see the
animals and birds kept in this place. It is one of the largest Zoos in the
country. It covers a vast area of about 35 acres. It is situated near the old
fort (purana qila) and is a place of great attraction. It is always crowded by
thousands of people and children every day. It is a beautiful and natural place
consisting of many kinds of trees. Plants, bushes and grassy grounds in the
Zoo, there are many animals and birds, which come from many countries of the
world. There we saw beautiful birds with multi colored feathers. There were
pelicans, Siberian crane, peacocks, peahens, sparrows, Nightingales,
Kingfishers, etc. We saw the crane, storks, ducks and swans swimming in the
pond. Some birds were singing, chirping and whistling. We were very amused to
see various kinds of monkeys, gorillas and baboons. I was very delighted to see
my favorite animals, which included tigers, lions, leopard and cheetah. There
were also many elephants, giraffe, rhinoceros, hippopotamus and crocodiles in
the zoo. The other attraction of the zoo was stages, deer’s, hares, antelopes
and rabbits. The most entertaining were the playful chimpanzees. They were
showing various tricks and we all enjoyed their acrobatics. It was a thrill to
see lovely golden fishes swimming in the water.
Natural habitat for
lion- We visited the entire huge
expanse of the area covered by the zoo, and saw all the cages of animals and
birds but the best area I liked was the natural habitat created for the lion.
He has a huge den like home made in a deep cave in a huge rock. Near his home,
there is an open space for the lion to move about freely. Near his home there
is also a huge pond filled with water for the lion to drink water. The
atmosphere created is just like the jungle we visualize to be where the lion is
supposed to live. This area gives us a very clear picture of what a jungle is,
and we also find it very easy to understand the living condition of a lion in the
jungle. It teaches more than any book could, as, we see the lion itself and the
surroundings as they are.
Chattering Monkeys-The other area of the zoo that I liked was the
setting made for the monkeys of different kinds and sizes and colors. Some are
black and skin color while others are just plain skin color. I do wonder why
most of the children visiting the zoo were crowding at this area. It appeared
as though the monkey was a high attraction for all of them. I also liked the
area very much, and we had a lot of fun in this place. It was such fun seeing
all size monkeys jumping from tree to tree with such ease. We humans say that
fat people cannot be active and fast, but the monkeys there believed this
concept. Huge and very fat monkeys were seen jumping with as much ease as the
small and thin ones. How they ate the mustard and fruits thrown to them by the
children was the most interesting sight to watch.
Enjoyable Trip- After seeing the zoo, we felt tired and hungry.
We sat under a tree and ate our tiffin. After sometimes, we returned to our
school. We thanked our teacher for such an enjoyable trip. We learnt many
things about the animals. I saw some animals for the first time, which I had
seen earlier only in pictures.
Conclusion- My visit to the zoo was great fun and with it. It
was also very educative and informative. A zoo helps us to learn so much
without visiting the natural habitats of animals and birds.
