Giants of the Savannah

The Dallas Zoo opened a new exhibit last weekend, so we went this morning to check it out! It is AMAZING! There are several sections of this one exhibit, and they are all so neat. The animals have so much room to move around... it is so much better than what these animals were in before! She especially loved getting to see the elephants so close. She made her elephant noise the whole time!

This elephant was cooling off by throwing dirt on itself

The ostriches and antelopes

They live in a large area but preferred to stay close

You can buy "giraffe food" to feed them

These were the only 2 brave enough to come close

We were thankful for the extremely thick glass between us!
But Harper LOVED her!!!

She sort of looks like a grandma with that hat and her glasses!
But I thought this was a pretty cute picture!
