Update on Abu & Simba!

Tuesday, May 15th, 2012

Abu & Simba, our Lions, are enjoying their large enclosure area very much! Yesterday we went in the enclosure with them to give them some exercise and interaction. Oh boy are they a handful! These boys are full of energy and never run out of batteries! Lions, especially males are usually very lazy, but not these lions! The minute we walked into their enclosure they immediate started to run up to us, and were jumping, diving, rolling, you name it. We love to see the energy they show us because we truly know they are happy. Abu and Simba still have a lot of growing to do, and we can’t wait for their manes to come in! If you would like to see more photos of Abu & Simba as they’ve grown up, then please visit their gallery.

Donna On A Rainy Day!

Donna the tufted Capuchin, was enjoying her monkey biscuit as she played in the rain this afternoon, with her two other friends, who are also capuchin monkeys. Donna is very intelligent, and as you can see from the photo above, she is very curious and loves to inspect everything especially electronic devices! She is a very sweet girl and enjoys when people interact with her. To view more photos of Donna, then please visit Donna’s Gallery.

Titan, Malinka, and the ZWF Staff!

Monday, May 14th, 2012

This past Saturday (5/12/12) The ZWF Staff took out Malinka the Ligress, and Titan the Bengal Tiger for their routine training and exercise! We also got to get a few very nice updated shots with some of the staff members and the big cats! You can see how much the cats and staff love each and also show a mutual respect for eachother. We are so happy we got to capture these great moments on camera so we can cherish these memories forever. Titan and Malinka are part of our private tours! Would you like to meet them in person too? Please view our tour packages or visit animal rental page for more information on having these felines at your next event!

Princess Sahima!

Friday, May 11th, 2012

Sahima our white Tiger Cub is growing up very quickly! It seems as if just yesterday she was only opening her eyes. She already shows her own individual personality, and is very calm and sweet by nature. She loves to be interacted with, and plays with a young Bernese Mountain Dog during the day (she usually uses him as a large pillow to take her naps). She is truly a special creature. You can meet Sahima in person on one of our very private and special tours! Yes, that’s right, you can actually meet our baby tiger cub in person and spend some time with her! We love to see the happy and excited faces of people who have always dreamed to be in the presence of a tiger cub. It is a great pleasure to make the dreams of many people come true on one of our tours. If you would like more information on the tours we offer please visit our tours page, or e-mail us for more information as well.
