Point Defiance Zoo

Point Defiance Zoo got 2 new polar bears so we decided to get a pass and go see them. It was a great day!
Jordan, Kenzie, and Coleman came with me. Jackson had to take a math test. And Doug had to work.

We watched the show during lunch. Professor Dumbledog rode a dragon in it.

We watched the elephant keeper talk. It was really interesting. The elephant, Suki, kept raising up her foot when the keeper was taking too long between giving her treats. She was trying to do tricks in order to get more treats:) She's almost 59 years old. She shares a birthday with Kenzie!


She also kept lifting her trunk to get more treats.

We found that they have budgies to feed! They used to have them at Woodland Park Zoo, but don't anymore. So we were excited to see they have them at Point Defiance now!

It's Kenzie's favorite part of the zoo.






It took 3 tries, but we finally saw a polar bear! She was bigger than I expected. Her sister, who's smaller didn't make an appearance, but maybe she would have been the size I expected. She was so fun to watch! She was swimming most of the time.
