Scary Meerkat - Nashville Zoo

Everyone knows that Meerkats aren't scary. Instead, I just caught this one while yawning. I 'm not trying to burst your bubble, but I wasn't only two feet away from him either.

If you like zoo animals, or are a fan of the Nashville Zoo at Grassmere, I invite you to check out my Nashville Zoo website gallery:

Patagonian Cavy - Montgomery Zoo

This is one of those animals that I had never heard of until I saw them at the Montgomery Zoo. Still, I think they're cool rodents.

Muskrat eating at Murfree Springs

Seen at Murfree Springs Wetlands in Murfreesboro, TN. I saw the creature swim for a bit then perch on a small log near the water level. While standing on the log, it ate the stalk of a plant. I like animals that can use front paws to hold food while eating.
