In the comfort of your own vehicle, drive at a leisurely pace and get up close and personal with the wildlife. A fair warning: they will descend on your car in droves in hopes of snagging a bite to eat!

Speaking of food, the cost of admission includes one cup per person - but we recommend purchasing a large bucket so you can feed all of the animals.

The animals are friendly since they're so used to being around people. Many will even pose for a picture.

After driving through the safari portion of the park, don't forget to check out the petting zoo, which features goats, turtles, and other furry, four-legged friends.

One of the best parts of the entire experience is seeing each animal's unique personality. Goats are known to stand on pretty much anything...in this case, even a turtle!
