点评:I highly recommend checking out this wonderful facility by taking the Behind-The-Scenes tour. You will be paired with an expert staff member that is not only very knowledgeable about the lion species but also knows each of the lion's birthdays and particular lineage. I was very fortunate to be paired up with Ali (like in the Karate Kid, not Muhammed Ali). Ali is a young professional that graduated from the Teaching Zoo at Moorpark College in California. Her love for these magnificent big cats, as well as the avian and tortoise residents on property, showed in her warm playful interactions with each animal. Simply visiting the ranch with a general admission ticket isn't enough because you gain no insight with any of the lions there. I also highly recommend taking part in the lion feeding opportunity. Seriously, where else are you going to get a chance to experience such a thing. They give you 6 large Nebraska meatballs, and you get to feel the pressure from the lion's tongue as it licks it from the feeding tube. I enjoyed it so much that I purchased a second feeding. The first feeding was with their largest male, Winston, The second feeding was with their female, Cheeto. I also purchased their tortoise feeding. Spike was very fast for a tortoise, and he was hungry. I was a solo visitor, but I was able to have someone from my tour group to record my Winston feeding on my phone. A staff member volunteered to record my Cheeto feeding, and Ali recorded me and took photos of my time with Spike. This was one of my favorite activities during my visit to Las Vegas. Lion Habitat Ranch is a must-see facility for all you animal lovers out there and suitable for everyone.
翻译:我强烈推荐你参加幕后之旅,好好体验一下这个精彩的设施。你将与一位经验丰富的工作人员配对,他们不仅对狮子种类了如指掌,还熟知每只狮子的生日和血统。我很幸运能与阿里配对(就像电影《龙威小子》里的阿里,而不是穆罕默德·阿里)。阿里是一位年轻的专业人士,毕业于加州穆尔帕克学院的教学动物园。她对这些雄伟的大型猫科动物以及园内鸟类和陆龟的热爱,在她与每只动物热情有趣的互动中展现得淋漓尽致。仅仅凭普通门票参观牧场是不够的,因为你根本无法深入了解那里的任何一只狮子。我还强烈推荐你参加喂狮子的活动。说真的,还有什么地方能让你有机会体验这样的活动呢?他们会给你6个大号的内布拉斯加肉丸,你可以感受到狮子舌头从喂食管里舔出来时的压力。我太喜欢了,所以又买了第二次喂食。第一次喂食的是他们最大的公龟温斯顿,第二次喂食的是母龟奇多。我还买了他们的陆龟喂食套餐。斯派克的速度对陆龟来说非常快,而且它很饿。我是独自一人,但我请了旅行团的一位工作人员用我的手机记录我喂温斯顿的过程。一位工作人员自愿记录了我喂奇多的过程,阿里也录了下来,并拍下了我和斯派克在一起的点点滴滴。这是我在拉斯维加斯最喜欢的活动之一。狮子栖息地牧场是所有动物爱好者必去的地方,适合所有人。
