A video that has gone viral on social media shows a little girl hugging an ostrich at a safari park. The video has left the internet divided.
Safari rides are actually fun, no? Especially for the children who can actually see the animals come to life. However, would you be concerned if your little one attempted to hug one of the animals during the ride? Well, a video that has gone viral on social media shows a little girl hugging an ostrich while she was feeding it from her car. The video was posted on Twitter by Now This News. It has over 30,000 views.
While it is absolutely wonderful how little Emma approached the bird without being scared. However, this could have been dangerous, the internet pointed out.
The video shows Emma first feeding the birds at the Tennessee Safari Park in Alamo. She is seen holding a bucket of food and feeding the birds from inside the car. Then, suddenly, she grabs an ostrich by the neck and hugs it. The bird tries to free itself and the little one appears a little disappointed with it.

The internet called the parents “irresponsible” as this could have ended with the little one being hurt. “That's so irresponsible. And they're laughing,” a user wrote.

With the energy infrastructure in the Middle East likely to take years to be rebuilt, the world could be set for the biggest oil disruption in history.

Speaking at the White House, Trump said the United States was in contact with "the right people" in Iran and suggested that Tehran was eager to reach an agreement to halt hostilities. "We're in negotiations right now," he told reporters, without offering further details on the scope or format of the talks.
