The mother Giraffe was being very affectionate and rubbing her face on the young giraffe. I just kept snapping photos until I got this one, where they looked like they were sharing a special moment together.

I think that’s in Fort Worth, right? I saw the little one when it was about half that height. Did you stop by the cats?
Definitely looks like Fort Worth. The new giraffe exhibit is tops. Getting to feed them is a lot of fun. I’m glad you don’t have to drive down to Glen Rose to get that experience anymore.
Yep, this is Fort Worth. I did stop by the cats! The tiger was absolutely incredible. He was walking all around his enclosure and kept getting up close to where the people were watching from. I don’t know much about their behavior or mannerisms, but it almost looked like he was enjoying the attention. Or maybe he was just trying to decide on which child to eat. :)
My wife got better pictures than I did of the big cats, and especially the tiger, and we haven’t shared our favorite pictures with each other yet, so I don’t have any good ones to share at the moment.
