I became unexpected friends with this adorable little goat, one of over 1,000 animals who reside at the Kansas City Zoo. He almost appears to be posing for pictures, but really he was just scratching his chin on a wood-framed opening in the children’s area. The Kansas City Zoo, located inside Swope Park, opened in 1909 with a modest collection of animals, but it has become one of the most respected zoos in the country. Nestled within valleys and rolling hills, the zoo’s exhibits range from the $15 million Helzberg Penguin Plaza to the interactive Stingray Bay to a chimpanzee habitat praised by Jane Goodall herself – a British ethologist known for her long-term research on chimpanzees.

Ok. I have a real weakness for goats. I think they are the best. That second “I love you, take me home?” Shot is the best. Thanks for taking part. Love them all.

Those are the cutest pictures! I love going to zoos. I haven’t been to that many, but I am a repeat visitor to Roger Williams Park Zoo in Rhode Island. I just always pray the animals are happy.

The good thing about being a repeat visitor to a particular zoo is that you get to know the lay-out and the animals really well. Such fun! Thanks so much for the comment!
