There's something acutely funny about seeing a photo of a giraffe or a zebra with its head stuck inside a car window and its mouth open ready for food to be popped in. But a photo is one thing— and at this animal safari park in Georgia, you'll get the real thing! Ride through the Wild Animal Safari in Pine Mountain and experience up-close encounters with some of the wildest animals around.
Wild Animal Safari is a drive-through animal park with 250 acres on which hundreds of animals roam about freely.
Visitors to the safari enjoy hand-feeding animals, like this zebra, even if it means they get a little slobber on their hands...
Afterall, who could pass up the chance to feed a giraffe, by hand...from their car?
Although, there may be a lot of people who would pass on kissing the animals like this man is doing!
Worried about what could happen to your car at this up close animal park? Don't. At Wild Animal Safari you have the option to drive through in our own car or you have a couple of other options:
You can rent a "zebra" car or van for a small fee and drive it through the safari or...
...depending on the season, you can opt to take an hour-long open-air bus tour through the park. The bus also stops to let you hand feed the animals.
Whatever way you decide is best, this is one family adventure you're likely to remember for a very long time!
On the safari, you're encouraged to stay in your vehicle. But Wild Animal Safari has a walk-thru park with smaller animals too.
The animal babies are so cute and cuddly!
This unique adventure in Georgia got its start back in the 90s when one man dedicated himself to creating a place where kids could get a lifelong appreciation for animals and nature.
One thing's for sure: kids are certain to get that here!
It's not every day that you can get up close and personal, and even hand-feed, animals you haven't been this close too before.
Wild Animal Safari is one park in Georgia that everyone should visit at least once. Just imagine the great selfies you'll be able to post all over your social media accounts!
This exciting destination is located at 1300 Oak Grove Rd, Pine Mountain, GA 31822. You'll find more information on the official website for Wild Animal Safari Park.
TIPS TO KNOW BEFORE YOU GO:
1. Ask how long you can stay and/or how many times you can circle the 3.5-mile loop on the safari if you rent a "zebra" vehicle instead of using your own.
2. Go early in the day before the animals get full.
3. Many of the rental vehicles have bars on the windows.
4. Ask if the vehicle has air conditioning before you decide to rent a "zebra" car or van on a very hot day.
5. Take some baby wipes with you.
6. You can never have too many pellets!
