Bosco, My Siamese Fighting Fish

The past week, I had a field trip to Aquatic International. After scouting for the aquatic plants that was need for the experiment, everyone went berserk looking for the fish that they wanna buy. It has been sometime since I last have a pet of my own. But being in college and going to salmon's place and going back home doesn't make keeping a pet any easier. But salmon has an interest in keeping fish. Just that he doesn't know how. LOL. So I thought a Betta would fit perfectly. They are air breathers. No need aeration. Nice to look at. Initially I wanted to get a halfmoon breed but it costs RM7! For the price I opted the longtail breed which is ony RM1 after discount. Dardar asked me what is his name. It never came to my mind to give him a name but I just blurted Bosco. kyahaha! I think it's a cute name. Same like Nicky gor's favourite Hong Kong artist =P

Zoo Negara 2

Gosh... Have been a little busy with all the field trips, reports and assignments and they are still undone. Here is a little update on the zoo trip :P

Ivan! give me my legs! Cameraman Ivan!

Left me & right Ivan! Cameraman Cyee!

Oh yea! When I was at the zoo, we actually bumped into 2 Malay guys. And throughout half of the walk in the zoo, they were constantly around us. They pose alot in their pictures! Did I mention that they are PLU? Why do I say so? Logically thinking, 2 guys in their 20s walking the zoo and snapping photos with all the posing. Constantly perfecting their pose and complaining the shots aren't good enough. Walk closely with their butt bumping into each others. Drank from the same bottle! I am not a stalker okay... Just that I can't help noticing how happy love birds are in the public.

Aren't they adorable?

The picture was taken when I was on my way back to uni in the KTM. Love is all around me lately and its lovely to see people in love. Well, I am in love too~ with who you may ask. HeHe... Next post lah~
Stay tune for more picture updates on the zoo!

~Love is in the air~

Zoo Negara

Field trip alert!!! Bear and the bunch of ichthyology students went to Zoo Negara for a field trip. We departured from UPM at 9.40a.m and reached there at approximately 10.20a.m. We were 1st briefed by Mr. Herman about the zoo and its aquarium. Some interesting info that I picked up. Apparently Zoo Negara is a NGO (all this while I thought it belongs to the government!). which means they don't receive and funds from the government. All fundings come from the tickets sold from entries and sponsors. I personally donated money to the zoo charity! So proud of myself! And in Malaysia alone there are up to 600+ freshwater fish species that has been discovered and there are many yet to be discovered. I soooo wanna join the zoo negara team! They go on a lot of field trips to collect specimens from all over Malaysia for conservations purposes. Be it is aquatic flora or fauna. They will even begin their own breeding program to help preserve and hopefully increase the population of the endangered species.

Right after the briefing, we were separated into 3 groups. Each group entered the Aquarium Tunku Abdul Rahman(ATAR). They display more than 200 species of fish there! The concept of the aquarium is a travel based aquarium that displays fish(and aquatic plants) found in the highest parts of Malaysia(also include SEA) down to the coral reef area in a manner where we will travel downhill(one of its kind) and according to Mr. Herman it is a world class aquarium. Malaysia Boleh! hahaha...

Our task there was to record 30 freshwater species & 10 marine species of fish found at the aquarium. We were then allowed to travel the zoo till 2.30p.m. Yay!!! This was the part everyone was waiting for! We took pictures like we never have taken any! walk walk walk... and even had to run from places to place!(not much time left ma...)

Below are just some random pix that I took at the zoo.
