When we were in Kerrville last year, we asked the locals about exotic game ranch tours. Two separate individuals recommended YO Ranch, and that's where we went. We like the recommendation of the people who live in the area.TravelBug-Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01974719934652737928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2756706420552331439.post-5805078470198435092013-03-31T19:02:43.306-05:002013-03-31T19:02:43.306-05:00Glad to hear Bob is doing okay.

I was just wondering how they compared.TravelingLongdogshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07562207397650862936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2756706420552331439.post-69100843998284828032013-03-30T23:48:24.145-05:002013-03-30T23:48:24.145-05:00Bob is doing fine.

He hadn't been to the doctor for a while so some of the skin cancers got pretty big. He has had two large ones removed in the past couple of months requiring a number of stitches. The current one removed was on his face just in front of his ear.<br /><br />Thanks for asking.TravelBug-Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01974719934652737928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2756706420552331439.post-17077970551527516022013-03-30T23:43:11.384-05:002013-03-30T23:43:11.384-05:00I hope Bob is doing ok.

I so enjoyed the tufted titmouse every summer when we had a S&Bs backyard with feeders. <br /><br />Joe and Gayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06284391279532727775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2756706420552331439.post-71360390403848223832013-03-30T22:38:58.010-05:002013-03-30T22:38:58.010-05:00We lived in Oregon for over 30 years and have been...We lived in Oregon for over 30 years and have been to Wildlife Safari a couple of times, mostly when our kids were young.<br /><br />Y.O. Ranch is not just for Exotic Game Tours. The exotic animals are bred and the population allowed to increase. Many of the animals are endangered or extinct. In some instances animals born and raised at Y.O.Ranch are shipped back to their native countries.<br /><br />Y.O. Ranch is also a big game hunting ranch. Controlled hunts of exotic species are allowed. Hunters pay a high price for hunting trophy animals. Many ranches in Texas have exotic animal hunts, but the ranchers make sure to keep their herds strong.TravelBug-Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01974719934652737928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2756706420552331439.post-52223571373119650542013-03-30T19:51:02.688-05:002013-03-30T19:51:02.688-05:00Thanks for a wonderful tour.

Visitors are allowed to drive their own cars through the compound and the animals roam free. We love going there. If we are ever in Texas, I would definitely visit the Y.O. Ranch.
