Several months ago, we told you about the drive-thru safaris at Safari Wild Animal Park and Preserve. And while the drive-thru safari is a must when visiting the park, it’s not the only option for animal-related fun. In fact, Safari Wild offers several ways for visitors to have some wild fun. Take a look:

Located in Como, Safari Wild is a 450-acre drive-thru safari park and wild animal preserve.

During the safari, you’ll be treated to close-up views of the park’s wildlife. You’re even allowed to toss feed out of the car windows, drawing the animals closer for a better look.
