Biles and Owens have encountered several wild animals, including giraffes, lions, cheetahs, zebras, and more on safari. But they had an opportunity to touch an elephant's trunk and tusk and even give it food.

The 30-time World medalist uploaded two pictures of herself sharing a moment with the elephant, and she claimed to be living her 'postcard' moment.

The couple also had a close encounter with a lion during their night safari. The lion came very near to the tourists which terrified Biles so much that she almost 's**t' herself.

Simone Biles had a successful 2024 year, extending her Olympic gold medal tally to seven, performing in the two-month-long Gold Over America tour and releasing her eponymous Netflix docuseries.
