Stunning Photography. Beautiful animals.. I think it's great they get to roam! This is a temptation for me.

How absolutely wonderful it is to see animals living as they're supposed to - free to roam around in wide open spaces! What a wonderful place, your visit there must have been awesome. I really enjoyed looking at all your pictures, they came out great and it felt like I was actually there.

We need more places like this. Do you know of an address where donations can be sent to keep it up and running?

The website is here: http://www.thewilds.org/ and there are ways to "become a member" but you could probably contact them about a straight donation through the website.

Alyssa, no ziplining that day. I would love to do that. The ziplining was pretty expensive and I don't think you would get to see the animals as well as you do when you take the open air safari.

Karen, we had camels, zebras, wild ponies and rhinos right beside our safari bus. Up close and personal. The giraffes were pretty close too. We even had to stop while 2 rhinos ..uhh..did their potty business right in front of us. Even that fascinated me LOL. Along the journey I noticed a couple of huge piles of manure and wondered why or if the crew had scooped it up like that. Well, when we had to stop for the Rhinos doing their potty business I learned that they mostly make their "deposits" right on top of everyone else's. I thought that was kind of considerate of them to keep it all in one place...lol.

Those are amazing photos!! I kept saying...oh, I love the pic of the giraffe, oh I love the pic of the cheetah, oh I love the pic of the zebra, oh I love the pic of the baby rhino. So let's just say I loved all of them!!

About 10 years ago (or more) we went to a wildlife safari park in Winston, OR. It was one where the animals can come right up to your car. It was a lot of fun!!

Thanks for sharing your experience with us. And I'd be up for a Pet Talk trip through there. Hee hee
