And while you are enjoying a buffet of extinction level mass homicide, I always recommend a stop at Rooster Cogburn’s Ostrich Ranch between Tucson and Phoenix. Check the internet, they aren’t open every day. But you can spend an hour feeding tiny livestock, giant nightmare birds, and end up covered in lorikeets. (Hint: the fallow deer have gross saliva. Feed them before the Sicilian donkeys. The donkeys will clean you up.)



The ostriches are vicious! They had that pail of feed ripped out of my hand and spread on the ground before I could even flinch.


Yeah, there are little plastic chutes in the fence for feeding them. I noticed those after I successfully and painfully retrieved my right coding hand from inside the head of one of those nightmare birds.
