In South Africa, there are many well-kept game reserves, where the animals live. There is a very special game park, in my city, called Seaview Game Park. At this game park, there all kinds of animals, giraffes, buffalo, wildebeest, zebra, rhinoceros, lions, tigers, etc. Picture taken by Anne Elizabeth Jones

Picture taken by Anne Elizabeth Jones At this game park there is a demarcated area within the game park, where cars can drive through the lion camp, with lions all around the car. There also smaller camps where the lion and tiger cubs live; each age category has a different camp in which they live, until they are old enough to go into the larger camps, and one day, back into the wild. If you are brave enough, you can even go into the camps to play with the cubs.
