hi everyone 0/* 0/* 0/*

I just wanted to correct my dad haha: there are three bigger lions (one that is the biggest one of all and two smaller ones, almost adults) I also had the opportunity to pet all three of them. There is also a cheetah that is in a seperate enclosure, he likes to stalk and chase one of the guys that works there. There is a zebra too that is fully grown but almost everyone is afraid of her because she likes to kick and bite us, so one of our guides or teachers walks around with a stick and runs away when the zebra comes close -O .

There is a mongoose that follows us around and likes to play with your hand. There is also a lkittle zebra that chased some of the girls today =O: =O:

That was just a bit more info from my side

Those yellow birds are golden pheasants indeed. I am not sure about the white one.
