National Zoo : Lemur Island and the African Savanna

After lunch and some resting of our legs, which was greatly appreciated, we moved on to Lemur Island.

On our way to Lemur Island, we found the Giant Anteater roaming back and forth. 


Jackson led the way and across from the Anteater was a very large display of sea turtles.

We located the lemurs who were moving around a lot compared to the ones at our zoo.  We stayed for a good bit tracking the lemurs.

After the American Trail (separate post), we moved on to the African Savanna.  The first animal that we found was the incredibly active cheetah was pacing along his fence.

Next up were the Grevy's zebras.  They were hard to see.   Lots of overgrowth and a fence don't really captivate sleepy zoo visitors.

 We moved on to find the Adra Gazelles.
