A visit to zoo
Last Sunday, I went along with my friends to a zoo. It is located near
purana quila in Delhi. It is one of the biggest in India. There were
many beautiful birds, monkeys, lions, tigers, cheetahs and snakes in
the zoo. The wild and dangerous animals like lions, tigers and
cheetahs were kept in different cages. We even saw a white tiger and
a gorilla in the zoo. Some of the animals were relaxing while some of
them were eating their food. We enjoyed seeing the acrobatics of the
monkeys. I gave some peanuts and bananas to them. Then, we went
for an elephant ride we enjoyed the ride a lot. It was fun.
