22 November
Spent some time checking out all the shops in Mogo. Mogo is a small village similar to Bangalow (before the bypass) and Montville, about 15 minutes from where we are camped at Moruya Heads. In the 1980’s Mogo Village became home to a small group of artists and craftspeople, many of whom still operate from the village. We will be coming back tomorrow to check out the Mogo Zoo.

Mogo Zoo
We spent an entertaining few hours wondering around Mogo Zoo this morning.
Mal is not a big fan of any animals kept in cages, but this was probably one of the best zoos we have seen. Large, very cool and clean enclosures or in many cases huge paddocks, with the freshest of food being fed to the animals. Mogo Zoo has many animals including more common ones, but specializes in endangered species and their ongoing breeding programs. I took heaps of photos, but will put a few of my favorites here.
Like you Mal I always feel sad when I see animals in cages, but despite that enjoyed the Mogo zoo a couple of years back. For a small complex it is excellent. And your photos are great!
Yes Di, You actually have to see it to understand how well the animals are looked after and how much room they have.There were too many photos of some amazing creatures to put them all on the blog. X R
