Fossil Rim Wildlife Center, Glen Rose

Hand-feeding those friendly giraffes was a highlight of our trip to Texas. So friendly, would do it again. Fun how inquisitive the animals were as we drove slowly by. Good gift shop at the mid-point. Middle also has a nice little petting zoo where you can groom the goats. We walked a nice little trail at the rest stop too which had facts about the wildlife. Cheetah, zebra and rhino greeted us on the second half.

I only give this five stars because my 9 yr old loved it! While I did enjoy it, I feel it is lacking in the variety of wildlife available. This is my second visit, but the previous was like 20 years ago! Overall would do it again! Pros: *Many animals do walk up to the car for an amazing experience *Animals were not aggressive *Place and animals are well maintained *The trip lasted a good amount of time, and it was not super crowded (this is more of an off peak season) *GIRAFFES!!!! Which you can hand feed 💕🦒 Cons: * one bag of food for the car, I do feel you should give one bag per ticket! *We were having to ration out food, I’m talking one or two pellets with the occasional indulgence! *Although my daughter loved it, and I did enjoy it, it is mostly deer/antelope type of animals with the occasional sprinkle of variety like an ostrich, zebra, and of course the giraffes!
