“Aww. Look at the baby animals!” a common line I repeated today while at the Ikorongo Game Reserve in Tanzania.  While on this amazing race, I had the opportunity to see three baby animals.

First, I saw the baby lions! They were so cute. It was so funny how the baby lion kept going into the water even though the mother said not to, because the water is dangerous for the baby.

Then, I saw the baby rhino. Baby rhinos are very large and interesting animals. After I stood beside it, I realized it is much taller than I am. The rhinos kept rolling around and trying to hit the trees with their little horns. Rhinos may be little, but I think it packs a powerful punch! 

Finally, I saw the baby elephant. It was cute for an elephant. Although it was little, it weighed a lot. I bet if you compare my weight to the baby elephant, the elephant will weigh more than me. 

I had so much fun playing with the baby animals at Ikorongo Game Reserve, Tanzania. This is an experience I will never forget. I would recommend this as a vacation bucket list for anybody interested in animals.
