Opening Day at the Audubon Zoo in New Orleans | Reopening for Phase One

[@NOLADEEJ]

Instagram NOLADEEJ I've been going to the Audubon Zoo since I was a kid and it has always been our own little version of Disney World because it really is its own little world. Thanks for watching! ❤️

It's awesome that the zoo has opened back up. Gators and friends opened here weekend before last. I have already been twice. Thanks so much Deej. It was good to see DJ with you. Have a wonderful day!

[@NOLADEEJ]

Yeah we were pretty excited to go! Gators and Friends sounds like fun!

[@robylove9190]

Wow! Two dad jokes in a row! Good going Deej 👏👏👏👍

[@NOLADEEJ]

Haha!

Played golf at Audubon a couple days ago (also opening day) and the Audubon Zoo/Golf staff is just the greatest! Seems like they're running on a skeleton crew but making the best of it and thanking everyone for coming out to support. It's wonderful seeing some of our favorite outdoor spots re-opening again

[@NOLADEEJ]

Oh that's awesome! It's been a while since I played golf, lol

Thank you for going out in the rain to show us the zoo's reopening. I loved that the tiger was so animated...growling and pacing! He usually just sleeps. The swamp train is a must-do when ever we go to the zoo. I think they could have arranged the area by Zoofari Cafe better and let visitors thru to the Primate World. Loved your footage of the lions! What a great addition to our first class zoo! The jaguars must have been quiet yesterday, no video of them. The sea lion exhibit is a wonderful timeless place. It is away from the other exhibits, so sometimes people do not realize it actually has shows and huge windows down below. Some of the animals seemed confused that there are humans wandering among them again! Lol! Thank you for this!

[@NOLADEEJ]

Yeah the jaguar wasn't out.. there were quite a few that weren't out. I love this zoo, it's really beautiful and I'm glad it's open again.

[@RangerRickTV]

I heard we may go back to phase 1 again.

[@MoviemaniaNick]

Cool looking zoo Deej! That tiger was awesome.

[@NOLADEEJ]

Yeah loved hearing it make some noise, too!

[@311vandal]

Loved your tour to Audubon! That Black-crowned Night Heron on the railing let you get pretty close! I used to take care of 6 of those guys at my last job and they reminded me of taxidermied birds with the freaky red eyes. 🤣

[@NOLADEEJ]

Yeah she was really a pretty bird and not shy at all, lol!

[@JenniferandMark2014]

Wow I have not been there since the new elephant exhibit! I always loved seeing the turtles on the logs. 🐸 Jenn

[@NOLADEEJ]

I still wish it was like it was when I was a kid but I guess, like Disney, things have to continue being updated hehe!

[@JenniferandMark2014]

NOLADEEJ “that’s what they call progress, dear”. Sorry in a Disney state of mind today 😁😁😁😁

[@NOLADEEJ]

Hi NOLADEEJ love your vids! What your opinion on the backlash with Drew Brees right now?

[@NOLADEEJ]

Thank you, Braxton. I'll look into it

[@klskin]

Isn’t there also a white alligator at the aquarium?

[@NOLADEEJ]

I don't think so, but I honestly can't seem to remember

[@Ashley-kd2su]

[@NOLAGent1]

[@NOLADEEJ]
