Brisbane, Australia...Crikey

I went to Steve Irwin’s open-air zoo in Brisbane. The zoo in sponsored by Animal Planet so the whole production was very slick in a good way. I’ve never been to a zoo where the animals were so assessable. My favorite was the kangaroo field, where they wait kind of apathetically for you mess with them. In the field directly adjacent to this one are the red kangaroos. When approached, these roos sit back on their tails, grab you with their t-rex arms around the neck and tear out your intestines with their feet. I did not have enough time for this field.

I imagine there is some kind of training for the animal presenters in the main auditorium on how to speak like Steve Irwin.
