Best Friends at Busch Gardens: Bea the giraffe & Wilma the ostrich

Busch Gardens Tampa Bay's 65-acre Serengeti Plain is home to herds of giraffe, zebra, rhino, African antelope and many species of birds. Just as they do on Africa's plains, the animals usually hang out with their own species.

But recently, zoo keepers at Busch Gardens noticed an unlikely pair. Bea, a three-year-old giraffe, and Wilma, an ostrich, just can't seem to get enough of one another.

Best friends? We'll let the pictures speak for themselves.
