Short Paragraph on My Visit to a Zoo

A zoo is a place where different kinds of animals and birds are kept for people to see. Last month our school arranged a visit to the Dhaka zoo, and I enjoyed it very much. We went there by bus with our teachers. The zoo is a very big place full of trees and gardens. We saw many animals there. The tiger was walking inside its cage, and the lion was sleeping under a tree. We saw elephants, deer, monkeys, zebras, bears and crocodiles. The monkeys were jumping and making funny faces, and we laughed a lot. There were many birds too, like parrots, peacocks and ducks. The peacock danced with its beautiful feathers, and we clapped for it. We also saw snakes and fish in the aquarium. The animals looked healthy and well cared for. Our teacher told us the names of the animals and many interesting things about them. We bought food and water, but we were told not to feed the animals. In the afternoon we returned home happily. The visit to the zoo taught us many things about animals, and I wish to visit the zoo again.

A zoo is a place where wild animals, birds and reptiles from different parts of the world are kept in captivity, safe and well cared for, so that people can see them and learn about them. Last month, on a bright winter morning, our school arranged an educational visit to the zoo, and the memory of that day is still fresh in my mind. We started our journey by bus at nine o’clock, and our class teacher accompanied us. When we reached the zoo, we bought our tickets and entered through the main gate. The zoo was a large park with trees, lawns, flower beds and cemented enclosures. Our teacher took us from one cage to another and explained everything. First we saw the royal Bengal tiger, our national animal, pacing inside its enclosure with its beautiful striped coat. Then we saw the lion, the king of the jungle, dozing in the sun. The elephants were eating hay, the giraffes were stretching their long necks, and the zebras stood together with their black and white stripes. We laughed watching the monkeys swing from branch to branch and make funny faces. The bear was sitting in a corner, and the crocodile lay still like a log of wood in the water. There was also a separate house for the snakes, and a beautiful aquarium full of colourful fish. The peacock danced with its shining feathers, and the parrots repeated the words we spoke. Our teacher told us the food habits, the homes and the dangers of these animals, and we learnt many new things. We were strictly told not to feed the animals, because wrong food can make them sick. In the evening we returned home tired but very happy. The visit to the zoo was not only a day of fun; it was a lesson about the animal world and the importance of protecting wild animals.
