Zoo Animals...

I have been thinking about the zoo quite often lately. It's one of my all time favorite places to go, I love it so much. Sadly, however, I haven't been there since I was a very small child. Today, I decided to think back about the animals that were my favorite to go and see. It made me feel a little less sad about missing the zoo. :) So, here's a few of my favorite animals from the zoo:

1. Giraffes:  I love giraffes because of their amazing height (Shocker, huh?!). Also, I think that it is really fun to feed them because their purple and/or blue tongues are insanely long, so they often wrap around your entire hand. It is quite creepy and exciting all at once. :)

2. The Jungle Cats: I'm talking lions, tigers, panthers, cheetahs and so on... They are all amazing, beautiful, and powerful creatures! I love them all.

3. Hippopotamus: They are so funny looking but cute at the same time. They make me laugh! They are also quite vicious, which I find very fascinating. They are just over all very fascinating creatures. :)

4. Kangaroo: They are cute, fuzzy, and they jump everywhere they go. I mean, what's not to love about them?

5. Toucan: I love all of the exotic birds, but Toucans have to be one of my favorites. They're so pretty and their colorful beaks are very intriguing! :)

6. Baboon: I know that these animals are pretty ugly, but I can't help but like them! Whenever I see baboons, I think of Rafiki from The Lion King; a loony, crazy old man baboon who everybody loves and laughs at. However, there's also that terrifying baboon scene from Tarzan. THAT is what gives me mixed feelings about baboons...

7. Anteater: These animals look so funny it kills me! At first, they seem to be pretty ugly, but the longer that I look at them, the cuter they appear to be. You must admit, it's pretty adorable how they carry their babies on their backs. Sure, gorillas do that too, but it's not nearly as cute as when the anteaters do it.

Farm Animals in Action Films

A couple days ago, I had a funny idea. I thought that if I was going to re-write books or do remakes of movies with all of the characters as farm animals, what animals would they be? I was so excited about this idea that I made a couple lists so that I could share my ideas with you! As I was writing, I began to run out of ideas for farm animals, so some of them technically wouldn't be put under the title of "farm animals".
Enjoy :)
