Exotic Petting Zoo

Not far from my parents' home there is a petting zoo, with some interesting animals.
Of course there are goats and llamas.

The best part is that on your way in everyone gets a loaf of bread to share with the animals.

Bison

Peacocks

Sika deer

Porcupine and tortoise
(These guys were my favorite set of roommates- quills paired with a protective shell)


The camels were a favorite!

And they followed us for quite a while, hoping for more bread!



Sika fawn

One creature we did not see!

Emu

Donkey
And boy, was he loud!




My sweet toddler eating day old bread meant for farm animals off the ground.


Rosie took a picture of our group

Papa walked the whole place with us the day before his knee replacement.

This animal and I have the same hair style!

Looks like the Sika fawn is wearing a wig - is that how they really look?

The fawn had just gotten tangled in some string. The owners of the zoo were waiting until he had finished shedding his velvet to try to remove it!
