Twycross Zoo 25/08/2008 - Pt. 1
Another family day out, another local attraction, another chance to get some much-needed DSLR practice. I took a fair few shots so I'll upload a few at a time.
Babirusa - an ancient species related to pigs in the order Suidae but in its own subfamily Babyrousinae
Capybara - like a bloody great big swimming Guinea Pig
Black-tailed Prairie Dog - a JCB equipped ground squirrel
Red-faced Black Spider Monkey - badly sunburnt
Javan Langur - can be gingery red or jet black
Concolor Gibbon (or Black Gibbon) - apart from the obvious, this is a female by virtue of the yellowy fur. Males and jet black with white cheeks, all young start off black with females becoming more yellow with maturity
