G.W. Interactive Zoo.

You guys. I finally did it. I pet a tiger.

Ever since I was a toddler, I was obsessed with Aladdin. Jasmine is my second favorite Disney princess, & the fact that she had a pet tiger amazed me. It became my dream to own one, & petting one made the top of my bucket list.

Last week, Laker & I went to the G.W. Interactive Zoo in Wynnewood with my brother-in-law, Alex, and his girlfriend, Halli. We had the best time!

We got to tour the zoo, periodically stopping to interact with some of the animals. We got to hang out with a mini donkey (Fun fact: They told us that mini donkeys & horses kill something like 120 people per year. Not sure how that works...)
Picture
Then we fed the camel! Halli & I were brave & kissed him (You put the food between your lips & he grabs it).

I held a baby alligator!

Then we got to pet some wolf/dog hybrids. That was an amazing experience. They're actually illegal in most states, including Oklahoma (They're in Wynnewood on court order), because they're considered dangerous, but they were so friendly!

At the end, they brought out a bunch of animals for us to interact with. Laker, Alex, & I held some snakes. Halli was not into it.

We also got to hold a baby wolf pup & an albino skunk! We were able to pet a baby bear too, but a trainer had to hold him.

Then came the best part - The tiger! White tigers are my favorite, so I was extra thrilled.

The tour was really interesting. They had tons of animals - LIGERS!, kangaroos, exotic birds, monkeys, all kinds of things. All of the animals were rescued, & the tour talked about preserving habitats & how they cared for the animals & bred some of them to help the endangered species. We are all impressed by how huge the ligers were! We had a great time, & can't wait to go back someday!
