This lovely fella was really enjoying the drizzly day at Australia Zoo.
One of the best features of this particular zoo was just how much care and attention each animal received from their keepers and the groundskeepers. These animals are very well socialised and they all seemed to be in very spacious and clean areas. Though I find the whole Irwin empire rather distasteful, I certainly cannot find fault with this facility or the conservation efforts/initiatives they help to promote.
We happened upon one of the keeper presentations at the tortoise enclosure. Apparently, these tortoises absolutely love to have their necks scratched! Igloo nearly pushed his keeper over while he was leaning into his neck rub.
