A "WILD" Night!



These two zebras decided that we were there to feed them only. At one time, had their heads nearly in the window! This trip to Hollywild was with Allyssa by herself. We fed the deer, these zebras, goats, a horse, camels, baby goats. There were llamas, 2 BIG, BIG cows and when I say big, I mean, BIG. They each weighed in at around 3200-3400 lbs. (yes pounds) and they drink about 60-70 gallons of water a day, and stand way, way over 7 feet! You would not believe how big they are. I got "head" butted on my hand by a baby goat, but let me tell you, just because he was a baby did not mean he did not pack a powerful "head-butt", my hand was sored for at least 20 minutes, got nibbled by the zebra and one of the goats, but that did not hurt. Allyssa enjoyed herself, wore herself out and was ready to hit the sack when we got home. Gotta go for now, it is 10:22 p.m. and I have to fold up a load of laundry and put another one in the dryer. Woo-Hoo!
