South Dakota Road Trip Day 4

Mt. Rushmore, Reptile Gardens, and Bear Country: rain rain and more rain. 


Everything we did today was in Rapid City South Dakota. 
Our first activity of the day was we went to Reptile Gardens.  Reptile Gardens is the most complete reptile collection in the World. Me, myself, I'm not a real big snake fan but the croc's and gators were pretty cool. Of course, it started raining the same time as yesterday. so we went into the indoor place. We got to touch a giant tortoise, a baby croc named fluffy, and i touched a snake too! 

the Next place we went was called bear country. pretty much you get to drive through this park and they have animals out in the open just walking around but they're separated by fences and cattle guards so that they don't eat each other. We saw Elk, Reindeer, Arctic Fox, Rams, Mountain Goats, Black Bears, Wolves, Bison, and Grizzly Bears. We also got to go through this babyland and saw the baby animals. In addition to all this, a front row seat to the show of how those baby animals were made. we had mountain lions and black bears mating feet from our car right in front of us. yeah the lady in the van beside us covered her face. haha she was embarrassed. ;)
