Thank you for the card!

Monday, March 1st, 2010

We recently received a wonderful thank you card via snail-mail by an animal loving family visiting Florida, that enjoyed their tour very much here at ZWF. As stated on the card, the kids said that it was the best day they ever had. We love nothing more than to make a child’s day here a memory they will not forget. Everyone here at The Zoological Wildlife Foundation, would like to thank Ivette and her family for the kind words that were spoken, and not to mention the adorable thank you card! Thanks again Ivette, we hope to see you again soon!

Dorito the Bonnet Macaque!

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

The Zoological Wildlife Foundation welcomes “Dorito” our Bonnet Macaque!

Dorito is a seven month old male Bonnet Macaque from India. The reason why we named him what we did, is because he actually smells like Doritos! Currently, Dorito is enjoying his two new enclosures. During the day Dorito plays with his other primate friends outside in the fresh air, and at night he gets put into the primate nursery, which is where he spends the night. We can tell Dorito is loving it here! If you would like to see more photos of Dorito please check our gallery out here.

ZWF’s Fundraiser Carwash was a success!

Wednesday, February 3rd, 2010

The Zoological Wildlife Foundation teamed up with Miami Subs Grill, and had a Carwash on January 30th. This carwash was to raise money for the foundation, and to raise money for Haiti as well. It was a great turn out! The Zoological Wildlife Foundation would like to give a special thank you to everyone at Miami Subs Grill, for making this happen. We would also like to thank all of the volunteers for taking the time out to help us with this event. The Pet Chamber of Commerce made an appearance. Everyone was enjoying themselves! There were cars being washed, Zebras being walked, monkeys being carried, baby tigers being fed with a bottle, goodies being given away, a bounce house for the kids, and much more! The Zoological Wildlife Foundation will be teaming up with Miami Subs Grill again soon to have another great event, so keep checking back on updates so you don’t miss out on the one! The Zoological Wildlife Foundation sent 20% of the profits made from the event to the Red Cross for Haiti. We look forward to seeing you at our next event!
