This is the Bandon Game Park that we stopped at a few years ago and couldn't wait to back to visit. All the gentle tame animals are out roaming for us to see and touch. They raise baby animals for different zoos and make their babies available to handle.
The pics are in no particular order because I have so many favorites.
Pose!
Aidan is just amazingly comfortable around animals. She marched right into this feeding barn at lunchtime with no fear.
This llama was hysterical. He was seriously smiling for us to take his picture. Everytime we put the camera up he would peel his lips back.
Aidan walked around the park talking to the animals saying things like, " Hi Buddy! How are you?" It totally reminds us of that SNL skit about Mark Walberg talking to animals, "Say 'Hi' to your motha'"
These are the worlds largest rodents. They are so ugly that they are cute. They have a very sweet personality too! I don't know what's wrong with me!
Bearcat! I have never seen one of these guys before and I am sure he has a great personality, but I don't want to see one in the wild!
Nanner interfering with Mr. Peacock's mating dance. There's no Peacock Blocking Nanner!
This baby racoon is only a few weeks old. They tried to put him in a cat carrier while they brought other animals out and he went berzerk! It sounded like a Tazmanian Devil.
Itchy Ass
Kids at play.
This was my guy, my buddy-ol-pal at the park. He followed me everywhere, when I stopped to look at something he would nudge underneath my arm and lean against me. I would have taken him home with me if I could have. What a sweet animal.
This is a 2 week old leopard cub. What a sweet little kitty, so far.
He was chilly so they had to keep him wrapped in a blanket.
Not too many people would say this, but this is the cuted Possum I've ever seen.
This is a big moment in history... Aidan letting Nanner hold her. Everybody LOVES Nanner, especially children. For some reason Aidan has not shared everybody else's enthusiasm. This trip we really worked on our love for Auntie Nanner. It has been a success! Yeah, her fear or whatever it was is gone, they had a great time together. Finally!
Bonding with Auntie Nanner. Nanner teaching Aidan to do a duck call.
It is the feeding barn! Enter at your own risk!
