Sunday 7 September, Australia Zoo – Elephants

Every day there is a time to feed elephants. Three elephants are lead up to the fence, and the people form a queue to feed them. All three have different personalities that show through when they take the food from your hand. One of them, Bimbo, has to hold your wrist with her trunk for every piece of food, and she does it so gently.



Jacinta: "I got elephant snot all over my hand."
Kira: "Eeewww!!!! Elephant snot!!!! I had it dripping through my fingers. The elephants were still very cute though."

Kerrie: "Lots of public interaction with the animals. I loved feeding the elephants, especially Bimbo."
