We recently finished building a brand new enclosure for our Lions “Abu & Simba”. Abu & Simba shared their old enclosure with our Snow Tiger “Nabha”. Well, between the three of them, they definitely outgrew that cage! We are still not fully done with the cage, as it needs some more work and additional modifications to it, but it looks like all three of the cats are sure enjoying the enclosure as is. They haven’t stopped running with all the new space they have! We will post a video up soon too, so keep checking back! To view more photos of Abu & Simba, then Visit Abu & Simba’s Gallery, or to view more photos of Nabha the tiger then visit Nabha’s Gallery.

Indah is a baby Binturong that is a new arrival here at ZWF! Indah is an Indonesian name that means “beautiful”.

The Zoological Wildlife Foundation was part of a Moroccan themed event at Agadir Moroccan Cuisine Restaurant! We brought Larry the camel with us for the event, and everyone loved him! Larry was the star of the event and was the perfect addition for their Moroccan inspired party.  If you would like to view more photos from this past event then please visit the Agadir Morrocan Event Gallery.

Nabha, our snow tiger, was part of a music video this past Thursday! She went with two of our handlers (Chelsea & Morgan). Nabha did a fantastic job, and had fun while doing it! She got to play and walk around, since that is what they wanted for the video. There is some behind the scenes footage of Morgan and Chelsea working with Nabha. You can view the video on our Facebook fanpage! http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=2685460139133#!/ZWF.MIAMI

Everyone meet Lola!

Lola is a King Vulture. She is a recent new addition to the ZWF Family. Lola was donated from a zoo and when she was younger she got frost bite on her “feet” so she has no claws! That doesn’t stop Lola one bit. She loves to follow you around and she actually walks pretty fast when on the ground. Whenever we approach the enclosure she is the first one to run up and greet us! She is a beautiful and amazing creature and is definitely enjoying her time here at ZWF. To view more photos of Lola then visit Lola’s Gallery.
