Wild Life Ranch Petting Zoo, San Antonio Texas

These photos were taken at  the Wild Life Ranch Petting Zoo in San Antonio, Texas last June.  This is the last thing we did after we  roam around the wide  Wild Life and see  amazing critters via our car.  This was our first time going to a zoo where you have to drive to see the animals, it was huge!  Kids won't be satisfied if they can't pet the animals right?  They were very excited to see and pet the goats.
 
While they were inside the petting zoo, I took some photos of the critters nearby.  Below are the  ring-tailed lemurs (lemur catta) relaxing at their cozy cottage.
And this  gigantic chimpanzee was showing his masculinity to us, he was climbing around his  cage.

Heck-I am still drawn to the petting the animals part of zoos--it isn't just kids who love that! They all looked like they were having a marvelous time-but then who wouldn't at a zoo!

I would love to visit there. We got to go feed some animals yesterday, bu they were all on the other side of gates. A petting zoo would be so much fun.

A petting zoo is a good idea, but wild animals like a chimpanzee should be out in the wild, not behind bars. I find this very sad. Endangered species are getting more and more common. Keep well Diane

Those are cute animals. How come there weren't much petting zoo when I was growing up? I never had the chance to experience how it is to interact with the wild. It's good that you're exposing the kiddos on such so they know how it feels to pet wild animals.
