⭐️ Our Zoo Keeper has done it again! ⭐️

Tenisha has been busy creating another fantastic enrichment toy, and it’s safe to say Diego the raccoon approves! 🦝✨

Watch as Diego sniffs out his treats, solves the puzzle, and figures out the best way to get his rewards.

Animal enrichment is a vital part of animal care, encouraging natural behaviours, keeping animals mentally stimulated, and providing fun challenges.

Who else thinks Diego looks like a puzzle-solving pro? 👏🐾💚

Bath time - capybara style 🛁💦

Our capybaras love a good mud bath - and it’s not just for fun! Rolling in mud helps keep them cool, protects their skin from the sun, and can even help keep pesky insects away 🌞🪰

Safe to say… they take self-care VERY seriously 😄

Would you try a mud bath? 👀👇

Sunshine, warm grass, and a fresh bath… the perfect afternoon for Maximus ☀️🐢

After enjoying a relaxing soak, our handsome African Spurred tortoise spent some time free roaming and making the most of the sunshine. These giant tortoises absolutely love warm weather, and Maximus certainly knows how to enjoy it! 💚

Who else wishes life could be this relaxing? 😄

👀 Can you spot the animals hiding in the photo?

These stunning birds are our Black East Indian ducks 🦆✨ Known for their beautiful glossy feathers that shimmer with emerald green and purple tones in the sunlight, they’re one of the most eye-catching duck breeds around!

💡 Interesting fact: Black East Indian ducks are considered one of the smallest domestic duck breeds, but their dark feathers have such an iridescent shine they can look almost metallic in bright light!
