one thing I love about this zoo is the awesome mixed species exhibits. This one was particularly interesting but they also had one with a pine snake, a diamondback, a gopher tortoise, and an indigo snake that I am still trying to figure out how they kept it from eating the others...

this is the jaguar exhibit and I want this to be in my backyard one day. It used to be filled with huge black pacu and arowana and an arapima but the jaguar ate most of them and the rest were moved into a pond...

and of course, the komodo dragon. my favorite in the zoo. As soon as we got to his enclosure, he ran right up to the glass and seemed a little too interested in my camera but it made for some excellent shots.
