"What
is man without the beasts? If all the beasts were gone, men would
die from a great loneliness of spirit. For whatever happens to the
beasts, soon happens to man. All things are connected."

While
attending a mini-rally of my friends at Open
Roads Singles, we toured Wildlife
Safari and enjoyed a leisurely drive through acres of land filled
with hundreds of animals from Africa, Asia and the Americas.

Elephants
on their walk have the right-of-way and we were always glad to just
stop and watch the animals parade by us.

Sometimes
it felt more like they were watching us!

|
It's
nice to see them in a freer environment than a zoo-type setting
allows.

You
ever get the feeling you're disturbing somebody's lunch break?

Island - it was fun watching the primates hang around and chill
out.

2 cents: I
enjoy this kind of wildlife encounter allowed from the safety
of an enclosed car. I'd rather we humans be a bit more confined
so the animals can have a little more freedom to roam as we
admire them. Wildlife Safari is a non-profit organization and
their support of the animals is sustained only from admissions
and donations. Check them out and tell them I said hi! |
