I have this vague memory of me once "riding" a giraffe at a zoo/circus type thing. Although, come to think of it, maybe it was actually an elephant. Probably far more likely to have been an elephant! :lol:

Or maybe a camel. I rode those as a kid at the Bronx Zoo. :yes:

AAAHAHAHA that is great! How the heck do you even get a Giraffee?! How crazy!

And my next question would be how do you lead it? With a halter? How would one get a halter on? Can you ride them? Im halt temped to email them and ask how and why they have it. Im sure they get emails about it all the time.

OMT! That is hilarious, I think my horse would freak. :jaw:

I think you should e-mail them and let us know what they say, I'm sure they get the question a lot.

I was just telling someone about the 'underground' exotic animal trade.

It's actually fairly easy to get exotic animals. There are trade journals and auctions throughout the country.

I had no idea until I was driving a back road near Kirksville, Missouri....

What's cuter than a sicilian donkey?

100 of them, grazing in a pasture.

I squealed and almost drove off the road.

I asked the lady I rode for about the place, she said it was owned by a guy who collected exotics... he apparently had a barn full of giraffes and zebras... all purchased at the yearling exotic animal auction in Kirksville.
