I popped down to Dubai Aquarium zoo (hence bats, hogs etc) this morning. Not sure I classify contained animals as wildlife, but it was the closet category I could find.
Below is just a few pix to share. It was a real test on high ISO from my D7000. The pictures are not special, but some interesting things to look at like shark teeth and a pig-nosed turtle :)

The pic of the bats I was really happy with as it was really dark in there, had to put the lens on their glass for stability, shot at 1/10 sec, 6400 ISO. The shark and Arabian scorpion were also 6400 ISO but the scorpion was near on pitch black. The Desert hedgehog is my fave, but thats because I use to have an African Pygmy Hog for a pet a few years back.

Hope you enjoy
