We went to another zoo today, the Cougar Mountain Zoo in Issaquah. Kind of funny to have zoo in Issaquah and they have an odd assortment of animals: Cougars(!), Lemurs, Macaws, Reindeer, Alpacas, Emus, Deer, and other assorted birds.
You can definitely get a lot closer to the animals at this zoo. If you weren't the brightest crayon in the box, you could easily get yourself hurt. I'm not sure if the pictures will show it, but if you wanted to you could stick your hand in the cougar's cage! Yikes!
We had fun at the lemur exhibit. One of them started chattering and we thought oh how cute, and then all of a sudden the whole bunch of them just unleashed the most unholy racket I have heard in a long time! Made me jump! Fortunately, Josh and his friend Jaeden handled it well and didn't freak out. Josh just kept saying "noise" with his eyes real big :)
This website has the best sound bite for what it sounded like, just imagine 6+ lemurs making this sound and MUCH louder: Lemur Sounds h
