    I love giraffes. I got to feed them tree leaves once. It was at the World Wildlife Zoo outside of Phoenix. They eat right off of your hands and their lips are velvety. We held the little kids up so they could reach. It was a great experience. They had two adults and a baby one there. I do not know if they are still there or not. I haven't been for awhile. They had white tigers, too. Not quite the same as seeing them in the wild but that's the only place I can ever see them. They have a wildlife safari park up near Camp Verde but I haven't been there yet. Dooley

    Now that's how animals should be seen - in their home environment. A really marvelous shot of truly majestic animals. Great piccie Andrew. :D
