OMG! I got to feed a
giraffe! And his tongue was super
crazy! It was purple and rough, and if
you can’t tell, it surprised me greatly!
I would never ordinarily feed the animals at the zoo. Even though I’m a vegetarian, I don’t even like animals. And I especially wouldn’t pay the $3 charge. But the giraffe feeding was part of the Groupon Amy purchased. That Groupon was just $15 a person, a price I thought was well-worth it to get up close and personal.

Amy is a pro at this! |
At this point, I am unaware of the crazy tongue coming at me! |
Our Groupon also included a bird feeding (traditionally
another $3), and if anyone knows me, they know I love birds. I once had a bird, a female cockatiel named
Mr. Bojangles. On Christmas Eve one year,
I opened the front door and she flew out.
I had never seen her fly before and I feel like maybe she flew right to
this zoo.

Mr. Bojangles, is that you? |
Now, I’m no zoo-guru, but Amy is, and she says this is the
closest she had ever been to a jaguar.
We’re just lucky it didn’t claw our eyes out, look at this ferocious
thing.
It's probably a little sedated, actually. |
One thing that really hit home while I was at Zoo Miami was
how much gorillas and monkeys look like humans.

If that doesn't look like a bunch of homeless men under an interstate, I don't know what does! |
Clearly quite evolved, even the humans didn’t have a box to put on their heads!

We did have one poncho between two people, though. We're half as smart as a monkey! |

I've read that otters are mean, but I don't care, I still want one as a pet! |
These lemurs are just lazy. |
And we got to see this cute little guy! |

The Florida Keys pull in numerous anglers and those on an excursion, yet regardless of how agreeable the general population and the waters, the ocean can be risky for the ill-equipped. miami key west tours
