. . . my zoo love gave to me:

Twelve handsome oryx/gemsbok,

(Went to the Wild Animal Park" tonight and got to ride the tour bus at night and see the critters. Got to see a few gemsbok right up next to the fence, including a year-old juvenile who was very cute. This pic is from earlier this year though.)

Eleven Nemos (er, false anenomefish) swimming,

Ten nifty beetles,

Nine koi fish,

(These are from the Japanese Friendship Garden in Balboa Park. This is actually a new batch; sadly, their older ones died because of a filter malfunction last month. Poor fishies.)

Eight sable antelope,

Seven giraffes and friends:

Six creepy turtles:

Fiiiiiiiive of

birdhousefrog's Chickens!

Four bonobos:

Three tiger cubs:

Two pastel cheetahs

And a guanaco looking at me!

And thus concludes the 2008 12 days of zoopics. Thanks for stopping by and enjoying them, and I will now return you to your normal, non-whacked out weekly zoo pics. (Unless I manage to get my hands on a copy of photoshop; then all bets are off. Bwa ha ha ha ha.)
