Hello, Mr Elk. |
That zebra SO wanted Libby’s hat! |
Check out those horns! |
After the drive-through section, they had a walk-in zoo that housed the animals in cages. You know, lions, tigers, and bears–oh my! 🙂
But first, a posed shot with the decorations. (Don’t you love how Justin even has his hand up like he’s driving? I mean, if you are going to play the part, PLAY the part.)
The thing I most loved about this safari was that the animals actually WANTED attention. At every zoo I have ever been too, the animals stay over away from the people and don’t ‘do’ much. I’m not sure if it was the cold weather or the fact that we were one of two families at the zoo this day, but the animals really wanted to interact. This giraffe almost ran to the window when the girls walked up.
This iguana was the funniest. When the girls walked by, he followed them down the length of his cage. They thought they’d be funny and run back, and he chased them. I bet they ran back and forth, the girls and the iguana, five or six times. I finally made them stop because I didn’t want to wear the poor fellow out! (Justin has video of this on his phone, but for some reason I can’t get videos to upload to blogger. If you can help with this, please let me know!)
He looked over at my camera like “Heeeey!” |
