My time at Chester Zoo
On Wednesday 5th of February, me and my class were invited to Chester zoo. Recently, rangers from the zoo taught us about something called palm oil: palm oil is basically a type of oil that is used worldwide. However, some farmers are destroying rainforest land in order to place palm oil plantations. You may think there is nothing wrong since pal oil trees are trees. The truth is animals are losing their homes such as red apes. Chester zoo invited us so we could spread the message of pal oil...
Me and my class learnt that there is one way of preventing the rainforests to perish. BUY SUSTAINABLE PALM OIL STUFF AND DO THE PAL OIL CONGA! Anyways, when we arrived at the zoo, Mike (one of the rangers) guided us until we reached the red ape zone. Niara- who was our normal ranger- led us an activity. The activity was when we had to act like hornbills. It was cool, I guess. Anyways we wandered through the red ape zone: it was magical.
Sadly, the activity was over. We ventured through the exhibits. It was sad to see majestic animals being killed by HUMANS! However, it was worth it since we might have saw some animals that might go extinct in the future. The bats were my favourite as they sawed above your heads and rested on your arms.
Well, that was pretty much it. Hopefully, I might get another chance to see these animals...
