A Visit to a Zoo
As we entered, we saw the section of the beasts. There were wolves, jackals, bears and foxes. The wolves and the bears looked terrible. A grey bear was moving to and fro in the cage. Just then, we heard the roar of a lion. It was in a big cage. The lion was moving restlessly. There were tigers and leopards also nearby.
Then, we went to the other side. We saw monkeys and baboons. They were jumping and dancing. Some of the people gave them parched grams. They accepted them with delight. Next to them, there were stags and rabbits and deer. All looked at us with surprise. We moved to the side to have a look at the birds. There were birds of every kind. We saw pigeons, parrots and sparrows they chirped and flew about. They were very beautiful to look at. Not far from us there stood a black elephant. He is eating grass lying before him.
Then, we went further. In a pond nearby, we saw ducks and cranes. In a small pool of clear water, we saw red and silver fish. Otter, in another tank, amused us. Men were throwing coins into the tank and the otter was bringing them out.
It was now late in the evening. We heard a bell. It was time for us to leave the zoo. We returned home quit satisfied.
