Walking around the zoos - Zoo of Rivne - Ukraine - Nasua

in #animalphotography5 years ago

Greetings, dear friends! I invite you to join my walk through the zoological park of the city of Rivne, Ukraine. This vast territory of the animal kingdom will decorate your day.

I want to share with you my impressions of meeting this wonderful zoo and its inhabitants. There are a lot of impressions. Every year we try to get into this zoo.

People often have sympathy and vice versa, dislikes for some species of animals. Perhaps, after this journey, you will change your opinion about certain types of creatures from the animal kingdom.

I will not give bare encyclopedic data. All this you can read on the Internet. Those feelings that I experienced when meeting with animals, associations, that's what makes me go further. This is something that cannot be read, this is something that needs to be experienced, felt by each cell of the spinal cord.

If you were absent at the beginning of the journey, join in!

Our journey began six days ago, today, the seventh day. On the links that I gave below, you can get acquainted with such inhabitants of the zoo as pelicans, meerkats and the black-and-white rough lemur, African tortoise, horses and ponies and porcupines.

Today I want to introduce you to Nasua.

After meeting with Porcupine, we turned onto a side street to the left, there were two large enclosures and a wooden house with bridges in front of it.

In the first enclosure, we saw animals, which by their appearance, remotely, reminded me of a badger. These animals were actively moving around the territory, it seemed to me that they stopped altogether, each of them was looking for something. Nasua, as they are called, are actually relatives of raccoons.

On the ground, you see a lot of apples, but these animals prefer to eat other animals, they are predators. Further you will see how Nasua eats some animal.

A single Nasua showed interest to us, it lasted a few seconds, then, she again went in search of edibles.

In nature, there is no room for pity, the strong eats the weak. So, sitting on a branch, Nasua shows it to us.

It was a rather short meeting. Children quickly lost interest in these predators. They saw an aviary with tapirs and hurried there. We will tell about tapirs tomorrow.
