The Fort Worth Zoo

Trent got up, close, and personal with the gorilla.

He attempted to do the same with the herd of elephants.

Elli loved see the ...

orangutans...

jaguars...

elephants and a host of other animals too. It was the zoo's 100 year anniversary. The history show featuring snakes, birds, alligators and a time machine. We all laughed and learned. Did you know the Fort Worth Zoo was established when a traveling carnival broke-down in Fort Worth? Once Pete the giant python got loose. It made newspaper headlines across the nation. Pete was finally found and a few years later layed eggs. Needless to say Pete was renamed.
