THE WILDS NATURE PRESERVE, IN CUMBERLAND
The Wilds employees prefer the lift bus since it can hold a sizable group, avoiding the
segregation of wheelchair users on their own “little handicapped bus.”
The
lift van is used solely as a back-up vehicle.
Both
are equipped with four-point tie downs.
One
moment there are glimpses of huge, graceful giraffes feeding, then a group of
rhino materialize.
Hartmann’s
mountain zebra wander in the distance.
Later
in the tour, a lone, forlorn Bactrian camel – two humps – lies resting.
Soon
a herd of Przewalski’s wild horses are within feet of the bus.
Their
exotic, odd profiles look like prehistoric drawings of horses found on cave
walls.
Just
another amazing day at the Wilds.
