i go to auckland zoo loads bcuz i live in nz my fav exhibit is the otter exhibit, cuz they CUTE

I’ve been too the zoo ever since I was a in nz child their animals were not many their and they used to not have a vet centre and they didn’t have those climbing towers I never seen the new animals that they had I saw the flamingo once but they got taken away a year later.

I remember the Polar Bear too in the 1970s...there were also some normal bears and lions, I think where the Sumatran tiger enclosure is now. Then once the lions went, they had a couple of Hyenas. I remember the ape enclosure being just a cage and they looked so sad being locked in there. At least with the newer enclosures they have a little more freedom to move around using the overheard ropes. Even though I now live in Otago, I grew up in Auckland and still enjoy visiting the zoo when I'm back up there.

I went to that zoo with my cousins! tho I don’t live in Auckland I live in Christchurch

I was here yesterday, oh my gosh

I love seeing our visitors videos of the Houston Zoo! Thank you for coming!

I live in auckland! I haven’t been to the auckland zoo for a looong time though. I love sea life too! The penguins are probs my fav cause they’re my favourite animal❤

yooo i whent to auckland zoo 😂

Hey guys, I just posted a NEW ZOO TOUR video to the channel! Make sure to go check it out and let me know in the comment section which zoo you think is better!! Thanks for watching :)

yoo, I live in new zealand! who knows we'll maybe see each other in the zoo or aquarium one day?

Great video dude keep them up

What are you using as bait to trap these guys?

Thank you for showcasing our zoo, they have come a long way! For example, when my dad was growing up (60s/70s) there used to be polar bears but because of their enclosure they would always walk backs and forwards (exactly the same walk and everything), the elephants used to be in that cafe near the tortoise, and when I was a kid (2000s/10s) I remember the tigers were in a deep pit near the red pandas. So they've definitely done a lot to improve the zoo over the passed decade or so!

what the difference between the last stinkpot vs the other ones?

Iv been there yooo

this video is so wholesome, congrats on the publication!

That was fun lived up the road from there when I was young now live in South Island haven’t been there for forty years it has really changed thanks again for that.

congratulations on your publication!! I was recently in Texas myself and went to the houston zoo and I thought it was pretty cool!!

Huge congratulations on the publication !!

The videos never fail to impress! I genuinely learn something new with every vid.

great video!! the leaf tailed gecko was so cool never seen that before!

So envious that you saw a Tuatara in the wild! That's so cool!

love the akl zoo i go every year! haven't been yet this year and coming across this video reminded me to plan a trip soon. awesome to see your experience and so lovely to see appreciation for the zoo :)

I live in Wellington. I had no idea Auckland Zoo was so good. Wish I'd known that when my kids were young.

I live in nz

The Auckland Zoo is amazing! I went there almost all of my childhood, it was probably some of the best experiences I ever had! Fun Fact: My Father’s coworker designed the ropes for the orangutans to walk on 🤯

I have been there before and I love it and I live in nz Auckland

im from New zealand and went to auckland zoo last year for my birthday and along the rooes i saw a mother carry her baby and the dad getting lettuce for all three of them

It's orangutan not orangertang. And foliage not foilage...

Are you planning on going to Wellington Zoo? Haven’t been in a while but it was pretty cool last time I went!

I am a new Zealander and I agree Auckland zoo is amazing

I need to go backkkk! Last time i went there the vet thing was never there

As a New Zealander Not my culture country but I’m really happy New Zealand is actually getting recognised like it should be from the start, Theres so many things to explore, theres Mount Maunganui located in Tauranga, Its really amazing!

I am born and raised in Auckland, with very little experience on zoos outside of Auckland, but I also haven't been to the zoo in several years it's amazing to have it claimed as one of the best zoos

NZ REF???? I LOVE THIS ZOO OMG

Story time that nobody asked for!✨ So, I was with my older sis and our friends. We went to the Baboon exhibit and saw this little Baby Baboon. My sister made eye contact with that baby, the baby Baboon started screaming at the top of its lungs and the adults heard…. The adults looked like a tomato. There was this water barrier between the exhibit and us. So the Baboons couldn’t jump over and do anything. The adults tried to jump, but landed in the shallow end. So thankfully no one was hurt. Also they lions tried to come up to us and gave us the death stare 💀

Kiwis! Assemble!!!!!!!!!!!

One time i was there, I got to feed the giraffes, otters, and the otters hugged me. 😂

So hyped to see NZ zoos get the attention they deserve. Most of the zoos here in Aotearoa focus more on conservation than entertainment. The Christchurch zoo, Oarana Park also talks alot about conservation and the zoologists who work there, will tell visitors of the park and the students who visit, why some of the animals are there and will actually talk about why they don't make the enclosures for entertainment (I still remember that speech from my senior year biology field trip). The zoos work with the Department of conservation and they work with the universities to help with teaching students and for making the animals as comfortable as they can. I also believe that they offer their facilities to help rescue injured wildlife and help to rehabilitate animals and release them back into the wild. Also, side note, love that you got to see the Kea, but you would have probably seen signs to not bring food into their enclosure, this is because they are known to be myschevious and will steal the food from visitors. I once saw a Kea steal an ice cream from a child while at one of the zoos. They love to cause chaos wherever they are. I also don't know if you saw them, but there is a kiwi look alike! They are called weka and tourists alwas confuse them for kiwis 😅

I loved this video!

Otago... is said like this Make a "oh" sound like being winded. Then "tar" then "go" is fine. "oh-tar-go".

I live in NZ and now want to visit this zoo. I cannot believe I have never done so. We have a wildlife park in Chch but it is very sad and uncomfortable to see compared to what is offered in Auckland. I love seeing animals having plenty of foliage and enrichment.

As a Kiwi it never occurred to me that the little monkeys not being meshed in would be dangerous to them haha. We do have hawks in NZ but not in a city centre.

Wow, awesome to see people giving Auckland zoo some love! I hope you enjoyed it, and in the 12 times (not actually, maybe 5 times?) I’ve been there, I have never seen an arowana, maybe it’s new? It was awesome watching this! I just wished they still had chameleons

You can book to stay overnight on Tiri Tiri Matangi . At least you used to be able to. Fairly basic accommodation. Or you can join the volunteer brigade to do the same. I can’t believe you didn’t see any Takahe. There were so many when I visited but I must admit it was many years ago. Great that you found the Tuatara though.

I love how passionate you are about nature! :)

Omg I live in Auckland and I love this zoo

I once gave a random kid a concussion in the peep holes at the meerkat exhibit because I was trying to be nice and she wanted to see the meerkats

I stopped going to zoos years ago because I always got so sad seeing the animals in small enclosures. But it looks like Auckland zoo has done a lot of work to make things the best they can be for the animals. I may finally go back! Thanks for showing us.

Cool New Zealand got a good vid and my dad works there and he says hi and so does the flamingo named after me :3
