I have 2 toddlers (just turned 2 and my older is 3.5 years old)....mine would never act in this way. If they are told to leave the animals alone, then that's what is expected. No child is perfect and EVERY child is going to misbehave at some point, but good grief, 6 & 8 years old is too old to have to be told continuosly to stop one specific behavior! I do not understand why parents do not make their children follow the rules...I definitely WANT my children to mind so the only way to do accomplish that is with consistency.

I am sorry that your visit with your friend ended up being more stress than fun.
