Zoológico Bararida 🦁// Bararida Zoo 🦁

Cuando estaba chiquita uno de mis lugares favoritos de Barquisimeto era el zoológico Bararida, siempre me emocionaba cuando me llevaban por un paseo escolar o cuando íbamos como una salida familiar.

Cómo fui a Barquisimeto de vacaciones aproveche de ir, así que mi prima @EldiariodeLys y yo nos levantamos temprano, hicimos una bolsa de cotufas/palomitas y nos fuimos para el zoológico.

When I was little one of my favorite places in Barquisimeto was the Bararida Zoo, I was always excited when they took me for a school trip or when we went as a family outing.

Since I went to Barquisimeto on vacation I took the opportunity to go, so my cousin @EldiariodeLys and I got up early, made a bag of cotufas/palomitas and went to the zoo.

Llegamos como a las 10:30 am y fuimos a comprar las entradas, una vez dentro lo primero que encuentras es un aviso grande que dice "zoológico Bararida" y claro, era mas que necesario. Empezamos a caminar para ver los animales y primero nos encontramos a una familia de burritos, eran Cuchi y habia uno chiquito. Luego nos encontramos con un caballo y algo llama "Cebrallo" que según internet, es un cruce entre un caballo y una cebra pero era realmente lindo no lo voy a negar.

Seguimos caminando y nos cruzamos con los monitos, estaban rodeados de un lindo estanque de agua y estaban jugando en su casita jajajaja, luego conseguimos a la cebra que estaba muy linda, bien cuidada y bien alimentada también. Yo no sé por qué en ese zoo hay demasiados avestruces, por todos lados habían muchos espacios con avestruces y personalmente no me gustan mucho 🥺.

We arrived at about 10:30 am and went to buy tickets, once inside the first thing you find is a big sign that says "Bararida Zoo" and of course, it was more than necessary. We started to walk around to see the animals and first we met a family of donkeys, they were Cuchi and there was a little one. Then we met a horse and something called "Cebrallo" which according to the internet, is a cross between a horse and a zebra but it was really cute I will not deny it.

We continued walking and we came across the monkeys, they were surrounded by a nice pond of water and were playing in their little house hahahaha, then we got to the zebra that was very cute, well cared for and well fed too. I don't know why in that zoo there are too many ostriches, everywhere there were many spaces with ostriches and personally I don't like them very much 🥺.

Más adelante había una familia de hipopótamos de lo más tiernos. Hay muchos animales nuevos y lo que más me gustó es que está mucho más cuidado que antes, y no lo digo solo con los animales sino tambien en el mantenimiento del lugar. Seguimos con los animalitos y también habían patitos andando por allí solitos.

Pasamos a dónde está el monito mandril, como Rafiki en el Rey León, eran muy coqueto ya que poso a penas nos vio para que le tomaramos fotos.
También había un puma que estaba dormido bien cómodo, un tigre que también estaba dormido bien cómodo y un león que rugía muy alto para que lo fueran a ver 😂 realmente queria atención.

Further on there was a family of very cute hippos. There are many new animals and what I liked the most is that it is much more cared for than before, not only with the animals but also in the maintenance of the place. We continued with the animals and there were also ducklings walking around on their own. We went to where the little baboon monkey, like Rafiki in the Lion King, was very flirtatious and posed as soon as he saw us so we could take pictures of him.

There was also a cougar that was sleeping very comfortably, a tiger that was also sleeping very comfortably and a lion that was roaring very loudly for us to see him 😂 he really wanted attention.

El zoológico también tiene espacios de recreación, primero nos encontramos con una tirolina donde tenía una pared oara escalar y luego bajabas en tirolina, también están los botes para que des un paseo por el lago, de hecho vimos un bote donde casi toda la familia 😉.

Para esa zona vimos a una familia de búfalos de agua donde la hembra se llamaba "chela" y pasaba su tiempo ignorando al señor que les llevaba la comida 🤣,
Fuimos al área de contacto y aunque no pudimos pasar fue muy divertido ver cómo todos los cerditos, chivos, ovejas y demas se peleaban para comer 😂. También hay dos osos hormigueros que también modelaron para nosotras jajajaja.

The zoo also has recreational areas, first we found a zip line where there was a climbing wall and then you could go down on a zip line, there are also boats for you to take a ride on the lake, in fact we saw a boat where almost the whole family 😉.

For that area we saw a family of water buffalo where the female was called "chela" and spent her time ignoring the gentleman who brought them food 🤣,
We went to the contact area and although we couldn't get through it was very funny to see how all the piglets, goats, sheep and others were fighting to eat 😂. There are also two anteaters that also modeled for us hahahaha.

En realidad lo que más nos emocionaba de ir al zoo de nuevo es ver al manatí, hay tres y tiene a un cuidador que está allí con ellos para hablarles, acomodarles las lechugas y cambiarle el agua para que este limpia. El chamo los llamaba y ellos asomaban su naricita para que las personas los vieran 😊. Me impresionó que habían dos condors, pensé que solo estaban en zonas frías ya que ellos son pájaros que solo habían en esos lugares pero al parecer no. Obviamente era necesaria una sesión de fotos en una camineria que obviamente mi prima se aseguró de que salieran bellisimas, no lo voy a negar.

Seguimos caminando para terminar de ver a todos los animales que habían ya que no faltaba mucho para que nos fueran a buscar, así que vimos mas monitos, un cunaguaro, unos mapaches, un gorila, un chiguire, una nutria que nos habló 😂, y unos venados que nos robaron el corazón ❤️. También habían varias especies de aves, de más monos y como dije al principio, muchos avestruces..... Mientras esperábamos para irnos nos compramos algo para tomar y luego nos fueron buscar.

Actually what made us most excited to go to the zoo again is to see the manatee, there are three of them and they have a keeper who is there with them to talk to them, arrange the lettuce and change the water to keep it clean. The guy would call them and they would stick their little noses out for people to see them 😊. I was impressed that there were two condors, I thought they were only in cold areas since they are birds that were only in those places but apparently not. Obviously a photo shoot was needed on a walkway which obviously my cousin made sure they came out beautifully, I won't deny it.

We continued walking to finish seeing all the animals that were there since it wasn't long before they were going to pick us up, so we saw more monkeys, a cunaguaro, some raccoons, a gorilla, a chiguire, an otter that talked to us 😂, and some deer that stole our hearts ❤️. There were also several species of birds, more monkeys and, as I said at the beginning, many ostriches ...... While we were waiting to leave we bought something to drink and then we were picked up.

Así culminó mi día favorito de toda la semana que pasé en Barquisimeto, fue muy lindo volver a ese lugar que tanto disfrutaba cuando era pequeña..... Gracias por leer mi post, nos vemos en el siguiente bye ❤️

So ended my favorite day of the whole week I spent in Barquisimeto, it was very nice to return to that place that I enjoyed so much when I was little..... Thanks for reading my post, see you in the next one bye ❤️
