urbpan | The LAST Buin Zoo pictures

Yes, it's true, I've come to the end of my vacation photos, only one full month after I started posting them. I hope you enjoyed them, and will stick around for the mushroom season, wherein I post endless photos of fungal sporocarps.

South African Blue Cranes

Andean Condor

"Lobo del Mar" I assume this is what we call a sea lion. It seemed much too huge to be just a sea lion, but what else could it be?

A placid ox.

There was a pet cemetery on the zoo property, open only to mourners. Strange that so many pets are loved so much they have a graveyard, and yet I was told that "when the dogs get sick, people turn them out into the street."

Like this friendly old fellow hanging around the train platform, and hobbling about on a badly-knit broken leg. Look at the angle of that foreleg bone.
