OUT OF AFRICA
Wildlife Park
April 2012
What a fun place we visited! We saw tons of exotic animals like:
Lions, Tigers, Giraffe, Black Bear, Camel, Ostrich, Cobras, Zebra, Exotic Birds, Tortoise, Wildebeest, Jaguar, Leopards, Wolves, Hyenas and more!
Attractions were: The Wild life Preserve, Giant Snake Show, Serengeti Safari, Tiger Splash, and Predator Feed
On the
Serengeti Safari tour we were given carrot sticks to feed the giraffes. It was really fun to watched all the animals come up close to the tour bus when our tour guide threw out animal treats for them. All of the kids were in heaven!! Justin waved at all the animals that we saw!
Predator Feed: We followed the caretakers as they made their rounds throwing over 800 pounds of raw meat (beef and chicken) to all the carnivores. The Hyenas made their crazy laughing sounds as the meat was being thrown over. The caretakers would throw the meat in different places over the fence so each animal would get their fair share and also so the dominate animal in the pen wouldn't eat all food.
TIGERS!! They were awesome! At the
Tiger Splash Show we watched a rare White Tiger interact in a predator/prey relationship of romping and splashing in a a 35 ft by 50 ft pool as they played with their caretakers. The trainers used blown up water toys attached to poles and would get the tiger to use their natural spontaneous behaviour to go after the toys, which to them was like going after prey
That tiger can seriously jump!!
We all had such a great time here! A great place!
