Good thing I am so technologically challenged or I would have become an owner of one. LOL (apparently they don't cross with domestic cattle at all)

I'm an electrical estimator, and a "site visit" is when you are escorted to the site of the work that you're bidding on.

The work involved modifications to the elephant paddocks. Which are right next to the giraffes and water buffalo.

The staff wasn't worried about the elephants, lions, giraffes etc.

They were SCARED to death of the Water Buffalo. That was the one animal they always kept track of.

When you are close to them, you can feel them checking you out and wanting to kick your ass.
