The last time I went to the National Zoo was aeons ago. I can't remember exactly when, but I know I was still in primary school. There wasn't much to remember back then. I knew I took the ride on the coach and that was it.
It must have been a not so enjoyable trip because even when I went there yesterday with Amir and my nephews, nothing rang a bell. Maybe it's a different zoo, that's why I couldn't remember a thing. Or maybe I'm just forgetful.
The boys had the time of their lives, though. I took the opportunity to teach them a thing or two about the animals and about courtesy. OK, well, Khaty the Orang Utan baby actually started it. After showing off her skills in peeling the skin off a coconut, she took the husks and threw it in the bin. That's educational entertainment for you!
I've heard people say the place was in a bad shape and that the animals lacked care. But that's not what I saw yesterday. Some parts of the area were closed for repair and that the animals there, to my untrained eyes, looked taken care of. Plus, the toilets there are actually being cleaned.
Maybe what it needs is just more visitors. For that, I recommend you to visit our National Zoo for an educational trip, not to mention healthy (take the walk instead of the coach). It'll certainly saves you more compared to a weekend outing to KLCC. Definitely!

seriously, you should try Night Zoo. I used to live in the zoo when the kids were younger. No no no, bukan share cage ngan sedara mara ko tu.. But every weekend we would be there.
And yes, the excercise is really great. Try Night Zoo, betul! You get to see the Hippos in it's full glory
