The Yorkshire Wildlife Park near Doncaster has only been around a few years, but its ethos of animal welfare and conservation can be seen all across the park.
The first post from the day out are of the Meerkat area.
The first pic is another Yellow Mongoose, looking less Joker-like.
Next to the Mongoose are the Meerkats. (in fact the Mongoose and Meerkat’s seemed to be mingling quite happily.)
This little chap is a Racoon Dog and it walked over to its den and lifted its head up to watch me fiddling with my camera. By the time I composed the shot, it laid down, so I stayed and waited for it to lift its head up again. It obliged.
And lastly, because there’s just something about Meerkats that is adorable, here’s another Meerkat shot.
