Fossil Rim Wildlife Center, cont'd


Here is a sampling of some of the animals we saw or interacted with during our safari:

















There were ostriches and emus.  This one is an emu, which you can tell by the shorter neck.  Also, the ostriches were way more aggressive.  My dad tried to feed one and it bit his finger, much to Lucas's amusement!  But we had to roll up the window even with this emu, to get it to move on away from us. 




Josh spotted this deer as we drove by; no one else even noticed it.  We were joking that Josh has a great future as a hunter (although let's hope he doesn't!).  He was really good at finding the animals. 


And he was really good at coaxing them to the car.  A handful of treats didn't hurt.  (They were wildlife center-approved treats.)
