Zoo Day Saturday

I went to the LA Zoo. Turned out to be a real good day for the zoo too. This huge anteater was frolicking in the dirt. They may look silly and shaggy but anteaters are actually very dangerous. During his dirt dance, a fallen tree was in his way and he swiped it with one huge claw sending the tree bounding away. Cute and deadly -  the worst kind of cute.

I also got in a serious staring contest with a giraffe. I didn't have any beef walking up to the giraffe enclosement but when my presence was made, one giraffe had a major issue with my face. Look, I get it - I've seen a mirror - but when I pulled my camera out to take a picture of the stink eye, she broke contact and shuffled away. That's right, even ornery giraffe's are afraid of going on youtube.
