Derby The Bennett Wallaby
Derby is a Bennett Wallaby. He resides with us at Zoological Wildlife Foundation. Derby is now extremely happy since he now has a mate and soon enough Z. W .F. will have baby wallabies as well. Don’t go crazy searching out site for his mate, she will be make her first appearance next week as our new recent addition for the week. Derby’s mate is about a year and a half old her name has been given but no more details will be given here. wallabies are mainly solitary but will gather together when there’s an abundance of resources such as food, water or shelter. When they do gather in groups, they have a social hierarchy similar to other wallaby species. Wallabies are mainly crepuscular. They spend most of the daytime resting in vegetation. Click on the link here to go to Derby’s Gallery.

Luna and Cliff
Meet Luna, our Bonnet Macaque and Cliff, a White Faced Capuchin. They have been raised together since tiny babies along with Diana, our adorable Tufted Capuchin. They love each other`s company. Luna just was introduced to solid food. While Cliff still drinks his bottle. He is such a baby! They spend hours each day playing with their bright colored toys and blankets.
We spend hours on a regular basis cleaning cages, toys, blankets, preparing food, bottle feeding, bathing and interacting with our babies. It is part of our daily routine at ZWF. We enjoy the special bond and interaction with our primates. Part of our volunteer program is to have that same interaction and enrichment for our primates. We strive to do the very best for our non-human family memebers at ZWF.
