Some beautiful ZWF photos to enjoy!

Monday, October 10th, 2011

Here are some lovely animal photos taken here at ZWF by Jim Winters of NikonMiami. The above photos are of one of our Hairy Armadillos, and our new Cougar Cub, Cyclone! We have a wide variety of wildlife at our facility and do tours by appointment. The great thing about our tours, is that you get to interact with the animals as part of the tour instead of just seeing them from afar. Animals always put a smile to anyone’s face, and a private tour here with our wildlife is an amazing experience. To learn more about the tours we do then visit our Tours Page for more info.
