I love wild animals. In cities only place to see them is zoo. Last week I got a chance to visit zoo when my elder brother planned a picnic along with his two friends. We reached there at 10 am. Zoo was divided into many sections like apes, birds, reptiles, butterflies, beast of prey etc. We tried to cover each section.
