The little zoo that could
There is a small zoo in Gulf Shores that we always visit, and is called the little zoo that could because it manages to move all of its animals inland and out of harm's way whenever there is a storm threatening the gulf coast area. It is a small zoo that is very informal and gives lots of personal interaction with the animals. But...we never got this personal before. For $5 we each got to spend 30 minutes with their 3 seven month old baby kangaroos - Darwin (shy), Jack (a piggy who snatched apples and carrots out of the kids hands faster than we could put them there), and Addy (who was snuggled up in a bag that she seems to think is her momma's pouch. It was really educational, and so sweet to watch the kids with them.
