Wyoming Beats Any City ZOO!

After thinking about it for a minute, I realized that Wyoming is a reverse zoo. I know I'll have to explain that.

If you went to a zoo in a major city, you'd see animals in man-made habitats, and you'd be allowed to stand there behind a barrier to watch them.

But here in Wyoming, we keep our wild animals spread out across the open landscape. No barriers. Instead, we ask our visitors to stay far away from the wild animals and ask them to stay in confined areas, rather than the animals doing so.

This does not always end well because most humans are lousy at following safety instructions.

In a city zoo, people look forward to watching feeding time.

In our Wyoming zoo, people may be part of feeding time if they don't follow instructions.

We also have the advantage here in Wyoming of being able to sleep among the animals. I'm talking about that great American pastime known as Camping.

City zoos do not allow their visitors to enter the habitats and sleep with the animals.

In Wyoming, we have times of the year when folks from out of state can hunt in our open-air zoo. Let's see you bring a gun to a city zoo. They won't let you hunt a damnt thing there.

Let's face it, our Wyoming zoo is a lot more interesting than any city zoo. It's a little more dangerous, too, but that's part of the fun and adventure.

It's also free to enter our Wyoming zoo.
