Mini Zoo At Aeon Big Shopping Mall, Ipoh.

On the 31st August, we were at the Aeon Big Shopping Mall with some friends. It was a public holiday to celebrate our nation's national day. There was an expo held at the shopping mall. We couldn't find any parking in the open space so we have to drive up to the roof top to park our car.

Saw a small crowd at this corner. I was curious and went for a closer look.
Looks like a fun place for kids.

I have never seen such big rabbit before.
Chickens and pigeons
Children were allowed into the pen to touch or hold the birds.

One morning we were passing by this way in old town.
We stopped to take a few pictures.
Near an entrance door which was padlocked.
A vending machine or a door?
I didn't stay to find out.

Linking to Saturday's Critters.

You may know that there is nothing wrong with what you do,
even from God's point of view, but keep it to yourself;
don't flaunt your faith in front of others who might be hurt by it.
In this situation, happy is the man who does not sin
by doing what he knows is right.
(Romans 14:22, The Living Bible-TLB)

    1. Thank you, Margaret! I think so too because many children living in the city have no chance to get close to these critters.

Happy Saturday, enjoy your weekend. PS, thanks also for the visit and comment on my blog. An answer to your comment, there are no crocodiles in this area, thankfully.

  3. Huge and cuddly rabbits! But the most shocking and stunning to me is the pink pigeon!! Is it really pink, or dyed? Do you actually have pigeons there that are pink? It looks like a beautiful toy.

  18. I have mixed feelings of zoos of any kind. On one hand they can be a great way to foster a love for animals and desire to treat them with kindness and respect. On the other hand they can treat them like objects for human entertainment with no respect or their needs or lives.
