Behind the Scenes

See what lurks behind our barn doors!
Ever wonder what goes on behind the scenes of Safari West? Join one of our very knowledgeable Behind the Scenes Guides for an hour-long peak into what lurks beyond the barn doors. Imagine peering down the hall of our giraffe barn and giving treats to the majestic creatures towering above you, or pet a giant porcupine and feel the quills? How about a visit with our African Warthogs Lulu, Zeus and Miss Piggy, or feed some treats to our exotic birds?
