| Thank you so much Susanne :) It was unbelievable day! It was like dream come true and I have to say... all those zookeepers were amazing, kind, full of informations and heart for animals. I was really happy about that. Camels are amazing creatures. I was able to touch his face and when animal that big is coming right your direction you feel huge respect :) Giraffes really are gentle giants... they are smooth and soooooooo gorgeous. Zebras on the other hand are pretty difficult... and really calculating b*tches :)))) But really gorgeous animals. Sound of black wildebeest is like thunder from helland really scary and I was only centimeters infront ofthem :)) Also with musk-ox!! Oxes are my fav animals and they are really huge and scary looking when they are right next to you. Their power is amazing... bended traverses in his stable are proof of his power. I was standing there and he came like a mountain of muscle and hair. Oryx, adax... they are so gorgeous but really timid and they have babies so it was pretty dangerous to touch them too. But sooo gorgeous antelopes up close... Oh, I´m still buzzing :)

| So great that the zookeepers were kind, - but I am sure they were happy to meet you also. Even reading your words here, I can feel how exited and happy you are, and how your love of animals radiates from you He, he, zebras I knew a couple who used to work in a circus. The man said, he would much rather go in and stay with the tigers than the zebras |

| Martin, it makes me happy seeing that you enjoyed your day so much! Also, such a day, it's a dream for many of us, I would love to be able to be so close to these animals too The musk ox is incredible, what a majestic creature!!! Reindeers are adorable and camel, haha, what a lovely face he has And the giraffes, ah, ah! Thank you for sharing the photos and enthusiasm with us! They are a joy to watch!!! _________________ Anna Horse and Bird studio - Horse sculptures My model horse collection

| Susanne... yep, the real zookeeper said that zebras are unpredictable and really selfish :))) They need atention and when it´s not available they´ll remind themselves the hard way :) Also their relationship with other animals is offending.
Anna... Thank you so much Anna :) I was in my own dream. Feeling the warm breath of musk-ox is pretty rare. And whey they ask me why I choose musk-ox I told them that it´s pretty rare animal to visit up close. It can be pretty agressive and his power is unimaginable. They showed me some wooden planks he croke just like a pick. And even newborn calf is trying to compete you a day after birth :) They are really amazing creatures. Giraffes are simply beautiful and very curious. A male head was huge. It was like feeding a dinosaur. He is 14 years old and is a true leader of the herd. Almost 6 meters high. Reindeers are really calm and gentle... i can´t say that about markhor... that is pretty something :) And black wildebeest?? Gorgeous but very scary!!
Roger and Chris... thank you :) I´ll never forget this day for sure :) They even offered me a job, so it is in considering process. It would fulfill my greatest dream. They were really amazed that I know so many facts :)) _________________ My webside / my collection / my youtube channel / my facebook / my instagram / my twitter
