Elephant Lunch
Denver Zoo has a new Elephant Pavilion where the Elephants have lots of room to roam. There are many places for the kids to play and work their imagination too. While many zoos across the country have had to give up their large elephants, Denver Zoo is expanding thanks to the generous donations and vision of Denver Zoo. Hope you get a chance to visit it soon.
Rocky Mountain Big Horn Sheep
Wildlife up on Mt. Evans is very common. The Big Horn Sheep are there, but hard to see. The last time I visited the mountain, I was 1) lucky enough not to be driving 2) thrilled to see many Big Horns all over the mountain 3) get my husband to stop in traffic while I shot a few pictures! This one was taken near Summit Lake. She had come into the parking lot to forage for food, but a tourist chased her in an effort to feed her. The Sheep didn’t like the tourist’s offerings and took off for higher ground.
