Treasuring the Moments
Mar. 17, 2008 - Out of Africa Wildlife Park
Posted in Nature

What do you find when you go to Out of Africa, a wildlife park located nearby?

Ostriches, the world's largest bird, who in one stride can cover 10-16 feet.

 

Zebra's - whose skin is actually white but has black and white hair patterns

 Giraffes - who could care less about manners when eating...

And have no shame when it comes to begging for food.

 

Common thought on why giraffes tongues are blue/purple is that it keeps them from getting their tongue sunburned .

 

Bearded Dragons

 

And many other wild animals from the land of Africa

Way cool getting to see those animals up close and personal like that- especially the giraffe! Fun!

That looks like a wonderful place to visit. One of our favorite activities at the zoo is feeding the giraffes. They are overwhelmingly huge up close though, but very sweet.

Lucky you to have something so cool so close! I had bearded dragons as pets years ago. They come from Australia, but are one of the most docile lizards, so they're a great choice for petting. I liked having them so much!
