The Zoo in Lille

Lille has a small zoo... its even free. Given my fixed budget, I like free things.















I don't think I'd ever seen a porcupine before... I was a little nervous because I could walk right up to the cage, lean over the fence and touch it if I wanted to. I thought these things could eject spikes at objects if they got scared, am I wrong? I must be...





























Cute little monkeys!















Surprisingly, all the animals were pretty active while I was there. But the most active were these ducks... man, you couldn't keep them off that female duck.















And in front of children, no less!
















They don't look trustworhty to me...
