Happy Friday!

While sea otters hold hands so they don’t float away while sleeping, Asian Small Clawed Otters like to sleep in burrows or on land. They are a very social species so you will find them all sleeping closely together.

Happy Capybara Appreciation Day!

We have been incredibly lucky with the capybaras we have had the opportunity to love. We had them before they were “cool”. Who would have thought the largest rodent in the world would become so popular!

Capybaras are more than just cute. They provide a service crucial to their ecosystem. They can even be called “ecosystem engineers,” because they control plant growth that benefits other species such as birds, crocodiles, and fish.

Tundra 🦊❄️🩵
We have had quite a few messages about fox encounters. They take place from late October until the end of March. We will be posting those dates soon, but they do fill up quickly! Keep an eye out and we will make an announcement on this page when they are available to be booked. In the meantime, you can meet our fennec fox in our VIP tours or Public Otter Encounters.

Forest and Canyon are growing so quickly! USDA will be coming out next week to inspect their new habitat before we can let everyone meet them. We are hoping that they will be making their big debut by the end of next week 🤞🏻

Another very long dawn until dusk day. We started the day getting hay and sandstone delivered. Jumped into encounters and finished the day working on the new bobcat enclosure. We had some of the best supervisors today.
