Having not visited a zoo for many years I was pleasantly astonished by Perth Zoo. Most impressed by the garden/jungle like nature of the whole environment. All of the animals seemed contented - except the elephants - The highlights for me were the tree kangaroos, complete with very
photogenic joey, the giraffes and most of all, the Australian wetland bird enclosure which is superb. Also deeply appreciative of the absence of "zoo smell". I shall certainly return next time I am in Perth - and I shall take a picnic.
