There is a fabulous small zoo located near Pensacola, on one of our favorite Florida beaches, called Navarre Beach, which is basicallyan island. The animals are very close, most within touching distance, which gives the rare opportunity to observe minute details and behavior of these beautiful wild animals.
One of our favorites is the giraffe enclosure, which has a viewing/feeding platform, where people can have the opportunity to pet a giraffe between the eyes, feel it's 'horns' and have the giraffes wrap their rough, wet tongues around your fingers while you feed them. Way cool!
