On Monday 10th May, Room 20 along with Rooms 19, 21 and 22 went on a trip to the Auckland Zoo.
On our trip to Auckland Zoo we got to see lots of different animals from all over the world, including Giraffes, Elephants, Red Pandas, Otters, Siamangs, Ring Tailed Lemurs and American Alligators.
It was a great trip because we got to look for and learn about animals adaptations! For example, Giraffes have very long necks so they can reach up to eat the leaves in the tall trees in the Savannah, this makes it easy for them to find food and they don't have to compete with other animals who usually east closer to the ground. Giraffes' patterned fur also helps them camouflage easily in the wild to hide form predators. Spider Monkeys only have four fingers to help them to grip and swing between branches. Meerkats have thick padded feet to help them move about easily on the hot ground.
