We got up at six in the morning on that summer day, because Grandpa was to take me to the park. With Mum, Aunt and three cousins, it took two taxis to get us all to the park.
Everyone was prepared to get on the big bus and see the wild animals in the park. As the bus moved, I saw many animals. There were tigers, lions, bears, monkeys, pandas and elephants. Some were lying down; some were standing there; some others were walking. And none of them were afraid of people.
After seeing the wild animals, we had lunch at the wild animal restaurant. We then watched goat fighting and horse fighting shows. The park had many other shows besides the fighting shows. For example, there was a sea lion show. We watched mountain goats walking on a steel wire(钢丝), monkeys riding bikes, and tigers jumping through hoops of fire(火圈).
The most unforgettable thing at the zoo was that I got in a tiger cage and took a picture with a tiger. I was very scared at that time, but when I saw a lot of people taking pictures, I was not so afraid. Grandpa said I had more expressions than the tiger.
This visit to the Shanghai Wild Animal Park is an unforgettable one, but it came to an end when we had to go home at five o’clock.
