I’m happy you came to the El Paso zoo. El Paso zoo is one of my favorite places in El Paso.
I had lots of fun here, such fantastic animals
I remember going to this zoo years ago when we first moved there. It’s rather nice to have found your video about it ☺️
Hope you enjoyed it! Thanks for the comment
The cats in this video were my favourite, they were so adorable ❤
Yeah those kitties were fun to interact with. That first little kitten was very friendly 😸
Great tour via Tom, as always! :) Truly, seeing the adoptable cats at a zoo was unique and wonderful! :) Thank you for spreading the message of adopting instead of buying your best fury friend!
Glad you enjoyed it, this was a fun zoo. The kitten adoption center was a pleasant surprise. I definitely prefer people adopt over buying their new furry friends. 🙂
I don't think I've ever been to a zoo without elephants and gorillas. 🤔 Enjoyed the video 😄 👍
Glad you enjoyed it, new regulations regarding space requirements for elephants forced several zoo's to relocate their elephants.
Oh no, we do have elephants here! I live here in EP and I even had a friend of my father's who let me in behind the scenes when he was working there... They have 2 or 3 elephants last I remembered. One was older and a bit more aggressive and he let me feed the youngest, I believe.
Now it works thank y
You're very welcome 😁
Before this was the Turkey exhibit it used to belong to the Prairie Dogs
They either died or were relocated
@@TomsRoadTrippin alas they passed away
Tom I'm a cat lover
And ur so lucky i have cats in my compund too and theyre nice
I do love the putty tats 😸
@@TomsRoadTrippin me too
Actually we have 4 Orangutans. The ones you saw was the Mom, and her daughter and the baby is the boy... the dad doesn't always go out when the mom and baby our out
Thank You for sharing that additional information. The baby was really cute, it was scary how he was climbing so high
great to see they replaced the Amur Leopard with Komodos, unrealistic of AZA to get siberian animals to breed in the Chihuahuan Desert lol
Also did you know that before the Lar Gibbon exhibit it used to belong to the Siamangs but they got relocated to the Rio Grande Zoo
At least they added another monkey 🐒
I have the same hst that says Sacramento Zoo😂
I've seen the same hat designs at multiple different zoos. My guess is they all purchased from the same vendor.
Also did you know that the Indian Rhinoceros was actually added this year and before that this was the Asian Elephant enclosure
Several zoo's had to relocate their elephants due to new regulations regarding the size of the habitat.
This is a first time in history were seeing two Tom videos
Sunday
And coming on Thursday
Yeah, I really tried to have it ready for Thursday
@@TomsRoadTrippin yaa ur right

Thank You, I am hoping more people will subscribe. Most of my views are from nonsubscriber s.
When are you coming to cali?
He already went there to San Diego Los Angeles and Santa Barbara which was three days ago
I was just in California for almost a week, check out my community tab to see the places I visited.
@@TomsRoadTrippin oh I’m sorry I didn’t know but I was talking about northern cali like San Fran Oakland Sacramento and even Fresno
@@Represent24-bv3lw I'll be heading to the Northwestern part of the country over the next few year's. That'll include Northern California.
Hi Tom i enjoyed this video. The Penguin looks very gorgeous that's a brand new area of the zoo that I believe just opened last year. I really loved the Wolves
Hi Zachary, glad you enjoyed my tour. This was an exceptional zoo, lots of great animals and fantastic habitats 😁
Hat
Do u ever went mini golfing in ur life
Yes, multiple times as a kid and younger adult
@@TomsRoadTrippin do a mini golf video
Also the exhibit that is being constructed for the Binturongs was the Sun Bear exhibit
What happened to the Sun Bear? 🐻
@@TomsRoadTrippin well your not going to like this but it passed away
Yeah I realize animals eventually die of old age, even in zoo's
@@TomsRoadTrippin sad but true
@@treys1607 NOOOOO I didn't realize, that's so sad 😭
