A 3 Year Old Just Wanted A Hug From An Ostrich At Tennessee Safari Park (Video)

Most of us have been to a Safari Park at some point in our lives, right?

If you haven’t and don’t know what one is, there are a place where you take your vehicle and you drive through this wide-open land that has exotics animals roaming around freely.  Before you pull your vehicle in, you will purchase some buckets of food to feed the animals.  It’s fun for the whole family especially the kids.  The animals will walk right up to your open, stick their head in your car and eat right out of the bucket.

One fearless 3 year old was feeding an ostrich at the Tennessee Safari Park in Alamo, TN wanted to do more than just feed the ostrich, she wanted a hug.

But it is hard to hug an ostrich while you are in the car and it’s only sticking its long neck through the window.  The little girl insisted on a hug, she gave her mom the bucket of food, grab the ostrich and gave it a big ole hug.  But it was the way she grabbed the ostrich and gave it a hug that was funny.

Take a look for yourself… (the ostrich is fine and was not hurt)
