The past weekend I was at the Tama Zoo ( Tama Doubutsu Kouen ) and has undoubtedly been the zoo that I liked most of what I have seen here on the outskirts of Tokyo.

Previously I told you that the zoo Toubu I liked more than the Ueno Zoo but now I have to say that the Tama Zoo I like more than these two.

Without doubt the main reason why I like this zoo is so because animals are happy and not as in many other zoos where animals are always standing or sleeping while the Tama Zoo animals are seen running, eating and playing. I even saw Koalas moving while eating and firefox running!.

The zoo is divided into four zones, the zone of Africa, Australia, insectorium and the Asian region which is the largest of all.

Tama Zoo has some areas such as that of the lions that are in a very large area where lions can be seen from above or you can even enter the campus by bus lions and watch them very closely.
While you are looking at the lions were a few who began to roar and the truth is that quite impressed me, because at first I thought it came from some how loud speaker we heard the roar.

Part of orangutans is also very large and have a few posts with wire like the wires of the light that travels a good bit of zoo, where you can see the monkeys at high altitude.

They also have many young animals, so I could see such young leopard.

The only trouble that day so splendid that he is that at 40 minutes of taking pictures I run out of battery in the camera, so you only get to take pictures of the area of ​​Africa. I will definitely go back just to take pictures, because you can take great pictures of animals playing.

If you are interested in going to the zoo Tama can go only 45 minutes from Shinjuku to Tama-doubutsukoen called station like the zoo.
