This was one of the younger giraffes, Enoch didn’t even have crackers and the little guy just walked right up to Enoch and let him pet him.

Too cool!

The tongues are hilarious. The little guy also tried to eat that little girl’s skirt. Hehe

I know he doesn’t look that big but this moose was huge.

Grandmom and Enoch going to see the Grizzlies.

August 2010 214

There is a porcupine inside that stump…

August 2010 225

Not sure why this guy had an O ring on his back…

August 2010 226

Yes, Travis is asleep and sucking on a tootsie pop.

The hippos. I’ve never seen a cleaner Hippo exhibit! It was cool.

Enoch was impressed with the Hippo skull.

Enoch had been looking forward to the naked mole rat the entire trip. In fact, this was all he could talk about after the first time he visited.

He even came home with a naked mole rat toy that is, believe it or not, uglier than the naked mole rats in the pictures. EW.

It was neat to see the size difference between the African Elephant (shown here) and the Asian Elephants at the Denver Zoo.

Grandmom was worried the kids would fall in the little pond.
