We went to the Detroit Zoo http://www.detroitzoo.org/ yesterday afternoon, one hour prior to closing, (it's good to have a year long membership). Every visit we try to see some part of the zoo that we haven't seen in a while, this time we took the train ($2.00 one way) to the end of the zoo and saw the new Kangaroo exhibit.
Their was one couple with a young child who came to see the elephants, we told them they were moved last year due to lack of sufficient space.
I was impressed with the exhibit, considering the current financial difficulties the Zoo and city are in.
The docent/volunteer that introduced us to the Kangaroo exhibit, told us there was a new baby in a pouch that we might get to see. She also mentioned we might see some randy Kangaroo's with more babies to come, even though they were supposed to be "fixed". Surprisingly and luckily our kids did not ask about it, and when they saw the action they assumed the Kangaroos were playing/fighting.
