LOL. My best memory is when we stopped at the giraffe, and he stuck his
tongue (LONG!) into the food bucket. Problem was that the bucket was in
my mother's lap, inside the car! Did you know giraffe's have black
tongues

It was fun when I was a kid. If I remember right, the llamas and long
horn cattle had a large roaming space, likewise for the ostrich and
such. But I don't agree with the idea of giving some folks a bucket of
food and letting them in to feed animals indiscrimantely anymore. It
seems too dangerous to me. Some idiot could think it's funny feeding
them other things. Everything else seemed miserably cooped and caged.

Steve, is it the Arbuckle (IIRC) maybe an hour outside of Moore? When

my
aunt was still alive, as we'd be leaving we always went through

there.
I thought the wild cat pens were extremely small. Loved feeding the
llamas and giraffe though.


Grace, we lived in Moore for 13 years. Arbuckle Wilderness is about 2

hours
south. I recall the place very well, and not really in a favorable

way. I hated
them keeping the monkey in the gift shop, dressed up like a kid. It

just didn't
seem right. The last time we went the kids were very small though--it

was a
long time ago. I also remember the youngest kid ate more of the

wildlife food
they gave us for the animals than the animals got. Or what they

didn't spill
in the car fighting over it. Me--mmmm--ooo--rrriiiies...
