We recently renewed our membership to the zoo and have enjoyed our few visits there. Julia and I fed the giraffes, which was fantastic. We were right up there in their faces. A different day we decided to take Kayla and all feed the elephants. Well, Miss Bamboo who is 45 years old was the elephant we fed. She got closer than in this photo and it was pretty cool too. During my zoo docent training I was able to get into the elephant barn and feed them and pet their trunks. The keeper said they don’t do that anymore, so I feel pretty lucky. This was cool too, just to be so up close to this cool animal. We also feed the birds pretty much every time we go. Those $1 sticks will add up, but it is pretty fun.
