Wildlife Safari

We backtracked a few miles toward Roseburg to drive thru the Wildlife Safari. It was really great, especially because we could drive our own vehicles and so see things at our own pace. We took hundreds of pics of zebras, lions, tigers, elephants, ostriches, buffalo, brown and black bears and a herd of yaks. Everyone especially liked the black bears (that were actually brown) playing in the pond - - very much like “Ian” lurking on the bank dunking “Tommy” splashing around in the water. The best photo op was of the very tall giraffe that shoved his head right in Mike’s car window! The most ominous animal was the mountain lion, pacing in his enclosed cage - - no wide open spaces for him and it appeared he wasn't happy about it! After lunch we headed south, with our usual late start of 3:00 or so.
