There is nothing more memorable than letting them eat right out of hand.

Or you can just look at them from afar and imagine that you are on a safari.

Giraffes aren't the only animals you can see at the Living Desert. You may also come across a beautiful cheetah resting right in front of you.

Or spot an ostrich that roams the pristine desert.
