Wild Gentry Safari

While visiting my family in Missouri and Arkansas we visited Gentry Wildlife Safari, in Gentry Arkansas.  I assume the exotic animal laws are a little lax in Arkansas because there seem to be several of these type zoos.  Evan loves petting zoos so we thought it would be fun for the entire Hemphill clan. We started off in the petting zoo area and by the time we were done and ready for the drive-through area Evan was fast asleep for a long overdue nap so Dan and I got to enjoy the wildlife together!

Evan was so happy despite an bump on the arm

Out of the dozen photos taken on the log couldn't get all of them to smile at same time, but I love that Presley is eating the stale bread meant for the animals

Meachum Family

Evan wasn't happy because we wouldn't let him inside the monkey cage!  He loves Curious George!

Charlotte and giant turtle

Presley kept trying to unlatch the Boa Constrictor cage, she didn't understand why that wasn't a great idea!

Val and a Prarie dog

I think the zebra was preggers

the deer were a little too comfortable coming up tot he cars

Rhino: Wish I had a better photo but decided to follow the rules and stay in the car

I had never seen a white bison

Kangaroo and Joey tucked in there

Evan loves to chase ANY bird
