Africam Safari I

Image Collaboration by Chris

Africam Safari is the perfect place for adventurers like you. Here you can live with more than 2,500 animals and 350 species worldwide into the wild.

We are sure you will live a completely different experience from that of traditional zoos, as you can go deep into African-like paths in the fascinating wild world on a safari-like trip by car or one of our buses. It is YOU who will be observed by more than 5,000 eyes.

You will travel among several sections where you can drive among giraffes, antelopes, zebras, rhinoceros, deer, Bengal tigers and lions, among others, in refuges specially designed to resemble their natural habitats. [Africam Safari]

(Sorry, previously posted)

Our task must be to free ourselves... by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty.

Albert Einstein

Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened.

Anatole France

I know at last what distinguishes man from animals: financial worries.

Romain Roland

Nature teaches beasts to know their friends.

At The Zoo

Life imitates Art far more than Art

imitates Life. This results not merely from Life's imitative

instinct, but from the fact that the self-conscious aim of Life is

to find expression, and that Art offers it certain beautiful forms

through which it may realise that energy. It is a theory that has

never been put forward before, but it is extremely fruitful, and

throws an entirely new light upon the history of Art.

Animal Celebration Mexico 2009 - III

Rinoceronte Blanco (Ceratotherium simum) White Rhinoceros

The White Rhinoceros or Square-lipped rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum) is one of the five species of rhinoceros that still exist and is one of the few megafaunal species left. It has a wide mouth used for grazing and is the most social of all rhino species. The White Rhino is the most common of all rhinos and consists of two subspecies: the Southern White Rhino, with an estimated 17,480 wild-living animals at the end of 2007 (IUCN 2008), and the much rarer Northern White Rhino. The northern subspecies may have as few as 12 remaining world-wide - 8 captive and 4 wild - although the wild population has not been seen since 2006 and may have disappeared entirely.
