THE HENRY VILAS ZOO IN MADISON, WISCONSIN

in #animals7 years ago

Free fun for everyone!


While not everyone agrees with the idea of zoos, there is something special about being able to behold certain animals from around the world with your own eyes. We especially like the opportunity that it gives our @little-peppers to understand more about these incredible animals.

A while ago when we were in Wisconsin, we stopped at the Henry Vilas Zoo in Madison. I've been going to this zoo ever since I was young, and since there is no admission charge, it is a great way to have some cheap fun, and to learn a few things.

If you are ever in Wisconsin and near the capital city of Madison, I would recommend stopping in and checking it out.

THE ANIMALS

Here are some of the photos that we took last time we were there. Some of the animals may be ones that you recognize, while others may be new ones to you.

THE @LITTLE-PEPPERS LEARN

There are many interactive and educational opportunities at the zoo too. The @little-peppers had a lot of fun and learned a few things too.

MORE FUN!

As always, I'm @papa-pepper and here's the proof:

Wow...seems you have enjoyed it. Kids must be overwhelmed with joy. I remember my nephew (6yr), how he gets excited seeing any animal. The Pivtures tell the story of fun. Regarding Zoo, If the entry is free, how does it support so much cost? Is it Govt. owned? Jus Curious!!!
P.S. regarding your last Proof Picture; Sir you need new Logo for Steemit. 😂

Great story @papa-pepper! Have you checked out wild world in Branson? There is a fee but I know how much you like snakes and they actually allow you to hold them!

Those photos are great! Looks like a good time at the zoo.

Thank you, it was!

Quoting the study this story is based on:
A survey of registered voters in Dane and Milwaukee Counties who did not vote in the 2016 presidential election found that 11.2% of eligible nonvoting registrants were deterred by the Wisconsin’s voter ID law. This corresponds to 16,801 people in the two counties deterred from voting, and could be as high as 23,252 based on the confidence interval around the 11.2% estimate, which is between 7.8% and 15.5%. The survey further found that 6% of nonvoters were prevented from voting because they lacked ID or cited ID as the main reason they did not vote, which corresponds to 9,001 people, and could be as high as 14,101 based on the confidence interval of between 3.5% and 9.4%. Roughly 80% of registrants who were deterred from voting by the ID law, and 77% of those prevented from voting, cast ballots in the 2012 election.
...
8.3% of white registrants were deterred, compared to 27.5% of African Americans.
...
“The main conclusion of the study is that thousands, and perhaps tens of thousands, of oth- erwise eligible people were deterred from voting by the ID law,” said Mayer. “The 11.2% figure is actually a lower bound since it does not include people who don’t even register because they lack an ID."

this is a great zoo my friend, everyone must race to enter this park. good post my pal.
