Right from the time we got there the giraffes were all over us. We started off a little cautious and only offered food from our hands. After feeding the giraffes and getting acquainted with their slimy black tongues, we were all left with sticky and wet hands. Since we are used to getting down and dirty on this trip, we decided to take the next step...1st base! With a bit of instruction from the giraffe keeper, we manned up and held a treat between our lips, closed our eyes and hoped for the best. We think the pictures will speak for themselves!
We spent over a good hour watching these amazing creatures in awe. It's been the most action we've had all trip ;)
Love the tongue action....wonder what your tongue diagnosis would be?
