In awe of God and Nature

had a zoo trip on last Saturday and zeee pictures are on facebook. it's kinda sad that our national zoo hadn't improved much since i last visited that very place 4-5 years ago. financial problems, i reckon. plus, i really pity those animals that are being kept in the zoo. they have zero freedom. i know we probably couldn't have a close look at them if they're all out in the wild, but being grounded by human beings won't do much better either. i'd rather risk my life to watch them out in the wild, because at least that makes them happy and normal. yes, normal. this is because i saw a bear, pacing round and round and round and round in its home captivity. dad said  the reason is that the animal is having animal stress, and that made the bear keep pacing around to distress himself. poor animal.

despite of the lousy animal management, there's one IMPORTANT thing that you have to remember if you are planning to visit the zoo: bring your own food and beverages. reason: they're so damn pricey. a bowl of ice-kacang is priced at RM8. horrifying much? sigh. what are with these hawker? anyway, thank god they're are not selling fur and deer meat that kind of stuff.


although there are not much to see yet that makes me realise how Mighty the Nature is.

i can still hear the giraffes' crunching noise as i fed them.
