ORG XMIT: MH101 In this photo provided by Busch Gardens, Bea, a three-year-old giraffe, and Wilma, an ostrich, share a moment Aug. 1, 2009 at Busch Gardens in Tampa Bay, Florida's 65-acre Serengeti Plain. 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 the unlikely pair that just can't seem to get enough of one another.  (AP Photo/Busch Gardens, Matt Marriott) (Matt Marriott / The Spokesman-Review)
