Trip to Skansen Frogs, Fish and Spiders

Elisabeth83 · Aug 24, 2005

Also at Skansen there is a kind of reptile/fish house that you can go to. There were quite a few reptiles that I didn't take pictures of like snakes and lizards. I also didn't have enough time to take pictures of the fish as they were closing and we had to leave

First up are the frogs

Just a couple shots of fish

Here are this years cuban alligators (or caimans..I can't remember)

And here are the parents I believe

Creepy!!!

Awesome pics!

I REALLY want a Dart frog. I guess I'll have to make due with my Rice Paddie Frogs.

Man, you should've warned us about the spiders! I just screamed and made the cats fall off the sofa!!! Wonderful pics!! Just love the colours of the frogs, so intense.

Hmmm...if thoseare the parents, then they're definately alligators. If they're not the parents, then my first guess would have been caiman...

Looks like a fantastic place and great pictures!

Thanks for all the nice comments everyone

SarahBravo - I wrote in the title "Frogs, Fish and Spiders" :lol:

Puffer_freak - I'm not sure if those are the parents I was just assuming they were. I'm begining to think maybe the two little ones are caimans brought in from another zoo or something :look:
