Promised Land Zoo Branson

 
While we were at the Dixie Stampede the family sitting next to us told us we MUST go to
Promised land zoo!!  Said it was SUPER fun and NOT to be missed!!!  I must say that we were very HAPPY that we listened to them!!!  It is a Hands On Zoo!!  The kids (and adults) can feed and touch everything EXCEPT the Lion, Tiger and Monkeys!!  Ava wanted to know why we can't hand feed the lion.....Well baby we like our fingers :) 
  I must confess I LOVED this place as  much as the children!!!  The one thing ALL the kids have inherited from me is that I love animals!!!  So to get to touch and feed Lemurs, Kangaroo, Imu, prairie dog, deer, zebra, camels...and many more was AMAZING!!
 
 
 
 
Waiting on Daddy to get our tickets!!!

Watching the lemur wrestling!


 
Feeding the Llamas
 
 









This little guy had a Mohawk!  We thought he was adorable!


 
 
The Goats 





 

Ava really wanted to pet this baby cow!


The goat was attempting to bully Kerrigan into giving him some food!


 
 
THE KANGAROO



 
Going through Africa...not sure all the animal names,
but it sure was fun!!




They were going to feed this thing, but it was chewing something green and slimey that was dripping from its mouth  both girls say EEEWWW!!!  LOL


The Deer
The deer were in with pigs and miniature ponies.  The miniature ponies were "big bullies" per Ava
They tried to get all the food and the girls had to get creative to feed the deer and pigs before the ponies came and took it!!  


 
 


 

 





Kerrigan is pointing her little finger at this pony...
she was telling it that the deer wanted food!!! 

 

 
IMU








 
BACK TO THE LLAMAS!!



 
Ready for the show by

Our favorite the Lemur!

Here the Lemur is attempting to steal Kerrigan's paci!!

He is saying "I will get that paci"

He held Ava's hand!

Kerrigan decided on another look, after she gave me the paci to put away!!
She wasn't letting some Lemur take her PACI!!

Armadillo

Looking at the armaillo

Ava and the Armadillo

This critter likes night time and therefore was trying to crawl in the zoo keepers shirt so that it would be dark!!  We did get his tail to wrap around our fingers like it would a branch!  VERY COOL!!


Baby Kangaroo in a purse

Petting the Kangaroo

 



This zoo had scriptures everywhere which was very neat! 
Ava wanted her picture taken with this sign!! LOL

 

 Parakeet house
They gave us a stick that had peanut butter and bird seed on it
