Nature Walks – Lions & Tigers & Bears, Oh My

We decided to head out to the Wild Animal Sanctuary once again to visit with the animals. We arrived just as the park was opening, but to our shock, they were having a race, and the parking lot was already full. Fortunately, the race was just finishing up, but there were too many people at first. But the animals were out and were the stars of the day, as they should be. Despite the early crowds, we had a great time. And we did see lions, tigers and bears, as well as many other beautiful animals. 🙂 🙂 🙂

We even saw this beautiful black leopard.

The foxes were out and about too. Some were just sunning themselves, while others were on the move.

Lots of the big cats. I love the all the big cats. 🙂

The lunch truck had arrived and the tigers were lining up.

The King and Queen overseeing their “jungle”.

The bears were having a great time playing in the water and cooling off. There were Grizzly Bears and Black Bears.

And the wolves were out too. Some were in their pack and some were being the lone wolves. The pack of wolves really is a pack. They are a family of the mom, dad and their 3 kids.

And yes, EVEN yet another snake! This time it was a big bull snake in one of the lion’s inside pens. YIKES!!!! I will be so glad when it is NO LONGER snake season!!!!!

Despite a few hiccups, it was another great day to visit all the animals.

    1. No. From what I understand, bull snakes are only dangerous to rattlesnakes. But they look a lot like them, and I HATE snakes of all kinds, so I am NOT going to get close enough to really be able to tell at a quick glance!

    1. Thank you. We bought a membership, so it is free for us to go as much as we want for the year. I’m sure we will renew again next year. They do a good job with and for taking care of all the animals. They keep getting more and more too.
