Re: Enjoy your local safari park
Hey, we entertain ourselves with animals - and they turn things around on us, once in a while.
I'll NEVER forget the one of that guy who got out of the car to photograph lions in such a park. His family watched him being killed and eaten. It's still on Youtube, somehow....

Re: Enjoy your local safari park
In the late 80's, I was stationed in Germany at a USAF 'NATO' base. There was a German civilian who had (what they now call a 'bucket list') a craving to hunt rhino's in Africa. He spent a HUGE sum of monies to fly to Africa, hired a guide/tracker. and proceeded to fulfill his lifelong (?) dream of taking a rhino. Long story short, he was taken to where rhino's were, one was pointed out to him, he snuck up on it and sighted it up, the rhino charged, he fired, and MISSED! The rhino killed him. Stomped him into mush... Chalk one up to the fact that sometimes, the animals win!

What are you gonna do ( legally ) with a dead rhino anyway ?
Moral of the story : don't go, or if you must, don't miss.
