Animal lovers: Forget the zoo and the ‘wildlife’ park. If you want to get up-close-and-personal with animals do it while helping save one at the same time.
Here, you can get up close and personal with an exotic animal.
Just make sure they have eaten first…for this article I personally got close to 2 lions but only after they had a belly full of buffalo (I will be posting this shot in the next article on Lions)
On a more serious note, you will be doing a good thing and helping to save these rare and endangered species as ALL places mentioned are NOT ZOOS, they are places where you can interact with wild animals and give back at the same time!
