Una lucertola al Bioparco di Roma - Fotografia di animali

La mia foto per il contest #animalphotography di @juliank.
Uno dei miei luoghi preferiti in Roma è sicuramente il Bioparco, il giardino zoologico situato all'interno di Villa Borghese. Nacque come zoo nel lontano 1908, per poi divenire bioparco negli anni '90, ovvero una struttura che conserva le caratteristiche degli habitat naturali degli animali che ospita, anche a fini di ricerca. Ho sempre trovato che il Rettilario fosse la parte più affascinante. Struttura realizzata dall’architetto Raffaele De Vico nel 1933 (insieme alla Grande Voliera) che ha conservato il suo fascino architettonico originario. All'interno, tunnel, gallerie e una zona tropicale a cielo aperto, dove è possibile ammirare coccodrilli, testuggini e camaleonti. In questa foto una lucertola (forse un'iguana) dalla sezione anfibi, rettili e invertebrati, dove sono riuscita a vedere uno dei miei animali preferiti di sempre: l'axolotl (di cui purtroppo non ho potuto scattare foto).

One of my favorite places in Rome is definitely the Bioparco, the zoo located within Villa Borghese. Born as a zoo back in 1908, it became a biopark in the 90s, a structure that preserves the characteristics of the animals natural habitats, even for research purposes. I have always found that the Reptile House was the most fascinating part. Structure built by architect Raffaele De Vico in 1933 (together with the Great Aviary) which has retained its original architectural charm. Inside, tunnels, galleries and a tropical open-air area, where you can admire crocodiles, tortoises and chameleons. In this photo a lizard (perhaps an iguana) from the amphibians, reptiles and invertebrates zone, where I managed to see one of my favorite animals of all time: the axolotl (of which, unfortunately, I could not take any pictures).
