Animal Gallery

From majestic birds in flight, to an fearless wild bobcat staring into the camera, to an endearing llama with an humorous under bite, to a pug in a French window maintaining a comical expression, here’s my animal gallery. Meet three food-friendly zoo giraffes, a contemplative gorilla, SW dogs sporting sunglasses, and a green and red Macaw giving the evil eye as it’s being petted. I promise they won’t bite, gnaw, scratch, or mangle.
