An exciting day to let down my hair

I think today was a super hectic yet fulfilling day. Not to mention the pigging out on steak and ice cream... It was a preplanned outing for my parents to meet with K and him to meet them, and I'm really glad it went well! My parents still don't want me to be with him that much, for certain reasons. But me being me, I will stick to my own opinions and not regret any decision that I've made.

So the day started with meeting K at 10am and we then took a bus to the Mandai area where the Zoo and River Safari are located. Apparently the Jurong Bird Park is going to be moved to the same place as well, so there's gonna be FOUR major places of interest in one site. Awesome. Mind-blowing.

We went to the River Safari first because the giant pandas are more active during feeding time (read: 11am plus). Along the way, there were many interesting exhibits of fish, alligators/crocodiles/the other kind I forgot/the fake of 'the other kind I forgot', stingray, and birds. EDIT: The 'other kind I forgot' are gharials. And of course, there are fake gharials. The way to distinguish them: Crocodiles have V-shaped noses while alligators have U-shaped ones.

Caribbean Flamingos are a real noisy bunch.

Can you spot the capybaras? -w- KAPIBARA-SAN I WUV U

Piranhas. Actually they don't attack animals that are alive and strong, instead they target weak or dead things in the water. They are one of the decomposers in the river!

Huge ass stingray

Many big fish. Biiigggg fish.

So uh, if the fourth tooth can be seen when the mouth is closed, it's a crocodile(?) And if otherwise, then it's an alligator. Can you tell what this is?
