Monkeys - actually Gibbons on their island.

My wife and I took a day and went to the Naples Zoo at the Caribbean Gardens (click for website)to see the new exhibit of giraffes. It just opened and their permanent home won’t be ready for a few months. The animals are well cared for here. The giraffes where very curious and interesting. We watched the alligator feeding which you can see in the video below. Sorry about the wind noise that comes up sometimes, but you can hear the information being given out during the feeding most of the time and it’s interesting. I shot it with my Droid X. First time doing that and I’m sure I’ll improve. We, also, took the cruise that goes out by the monkey islands and saw a lot of different animals as well as plants. It’s fun – go.
