The red pandas were wonderful. Dorothy's camera has an impressive 12 x zoom, so her photo was much better than mine:

Selwyn & I had visited during an earlier holiday in France, four years ago, and were especially pleased to see one of our favourites - the snow leopards - growing up well. When we saw them in 2003, they were tiny cubs just venturing out to greet their adoring public; now they are huge, but still very recognisably cubs in their playful nature. Not to mention their still disproportionately large paws.

Other favourites included the giraffes ...

... and the vultures ...

... and some of the superb wooden carved animals around the place, just made for photography...
