Don't eat that, filthy bastard

hello hello hello. well. Im not upset or anything. and photos taken this time have absolutely nothing to do with filthy nor bastard. why, how can any animal be bastardic... ah~ What the Hell. Screw the peach cake =__=

first uP!



Not introducing any new species in my section but rather an old but unfamiliar friend in my recent life. Shown in the picture... is just a normal stray doggie. I call him pittypat. Should have shown you guys videos of how he walks. Will occasionally find him hopping home to s..som..ewhere along mandai road. He'll run so pitty-patty pitty-patty like he's so happy >< saw him when i was cycling out so i scream "DOGGGGGGIIIIIEEEE" and then he stops! so i go snap snap snap. And TA-DA! nice doggie. next time must bring some food for him. strokie =D

________________________________________________________________

Woah~ Lotsa words. Now on to my motivations in life. No them, No me.

A Familiar Face =D

It was so. so. s..o... cute when i found robo hooking himself onto the running wheel. He looked like he is d.e.a.d o_o I waited. manage to get a nice angle and wake him, while slowly waiting for him to fall back to sleep, hooking. Here he is, in action -Mr Captain Hook-



Step one. i woke him on purpose.



Step two. time goes tick tick. Lollipop goes "weee"



Step.. st.. e... th..thre..e.. Zzz.zzz.z.zzz

___________________________________________________________

Now now, while watching i got hungry. And i just finish my rice. And there was no other food. And im very very very hungry. *Ding ding* I'll eat what i have. Behold.

Live Feeding







i try scooping my food up, but he kept falling back to the bowl. You know, like how you try to pick up a fishball with chopsticks. Except this food will rolls on his own. So i gave up. And release him. And then, i named my food : Ah Grey =D

HAIL AH GREEEYYY~ Strokie =D

I'm.. re.al..ly. not pis.s..ed or.. a.nythi..ng. *Cought*

To Laze Around

hello hello. fellow... minions. New photos of the day here again, wonder how long i can keep this daily passion up. okie. chop chop presenting a species in holding area.


ps. sorry, photo's taken by a phone. so quality not there.

Bharals

Also known as Himalayan blue sheep
Kingdom: Animalia
Class: Mammalia
Subfamily: Caprinae
Gestation Period: 160 days.
Young per Birth: 1
Weaning: After 6 months.
Sexual Maturity: At 1.5 years, although males do not reach their full potential before age 7.
Life span: 12-15 years.
Mating occurs between October and January
Bharal are active throughout the day
Bharal is a Hindi name
Bluish sheen in the coat
In males, horn grow upwards, then turn sideways and curve backwards, looking somewhat like an upside-down moustache (refer to photo)

_____________________________________________________

Both fellows already here when i joined. Male is a very bold fellow. He'll challenged anyone unless he's been obviously beaten by that person before. Always picks on people to bully. See how he's showing his MAN POWEH in the photo. arseholl =__=
Anyway. Female was a nice sheepy =) good girl. Am very amazed about how horns on male are designed. And even more amazed on how male will use the tip of horn to scratch his back. *itchy itchy*

_____________________________________________________

An interesting event of the day. Well, what the heck. its purely because more attention is paid. Following photos sequence shows how male goaties challenge one another when they grow older. Luckily the following two fellows are still juveniles and hence am, most probably, doing this to kill some time.

1.


Both goaties positioned themselves, horn to horn, as if they're aiming.

2.

Both then raised up front hoofs together...

3.

and CHARRRRGED!!!!!!!
(If only i had the video. The charge was really powehful. hmm hmm.)

_________________________________________________________

Im not the first person who observed this and am actually called to attention to this little fighting event by my colleague. sankyuu. cute little charging goatie. Be careful, idiot. A charge from an adult goat can easily break a rib or two ^^

________________________________________________________

Now is a little time to laze around.

First participant :



Robo is sleeping so so so so soundly that he didnt even stir when i took out the container from his cage. thus snapped this soundly asleep hammie (although i did end up waking him because i jerked so much). ROBO! strokie strokie ^^

Participant two :



Took an unusual route today, somehow. And thus bumped into this lazy kitteh. Lazing around on a hot afternoon. Oei, lemme sleep too. yawn~

Many more =)

Gonna post lotsa photos today =D

Firstly, needa introduce one birdie. She is called One Eye Jack. The reason, eh... u can see clearly from the picture :



Malayan Fish Owl (Buffy Owl)

Kingdom: Animalia
Class: Aves
Genus: Ketupa
Size 50 cm (20 in).
Prominent white patch on forehead above bill.
Found in mangroves, freshwater swamps, plantations and wooded gardens.
The female lays one egg, which hatches approximately one month later.
Owlet's flight feathers begin to grow in about 45 days old.

- not much info found online for her -

__________________________________________________________

Similar to other animals already mentioned, One Eye Jack was already at Holding when i joined. Used to have a friend with her. Friend was brought to Leopard Trail for... exhibiting (i think). But, heck with it. Why must they be seperate. ust because One Eye Jack is... slightly disabled =__= Heck with it. Darmned.

__________________________________________________________


Anyway, here is the extras :

Second Up



+ This is little porcuie. Was assigned to work at Leopard Trail for half a day suddenly o_O and i ended up wasting alot of time taking pretty photos of the animals there (sorry ^^). This is one of the lovable animals : Malayan Porcupine =) strokie-not though.

Thirdly



+ This! funny looking ridiculous bird is a Lapwing. This fellow and his gang escaped from their exhibit and has been stupid enough to still wander around Zoo and Night Safari for food. Now someone's catching them again. Run! Lappy! Ridiculous BIRDIE! RUN! Heck with people =__=

Lastly



+ Haha. No one would guess, at all, who this fellow is.
Similar to Storm (refer to June 17th's post), this guy here is a Slow Loris. Except that he's a Bengal. Did ewe seh teh ToNGUe!! SEH TEH TONGUE!! *squeallll*
Anyway, continue to ponder who this may be. I'm not going to reveal it. Strokie =)
