We recently attended the “Earth Day Festival” at Pinecrest Gardens! The outcome was fantastic! We had live animal presentations, and we also had animal photo sessions! Everyone thought our animal shows were great, and we also had many people take photos with our many different animals after the show! Pinecrest gardens is a beautiful area, and the Earth Day Festival turned out very nice. Some animals we brought to the event were our capuchins, binturong, lemur, python, crocodile, tiger cub, gibbons, and a few more! To view more photos of the event then visit our Earth Day 4/15/12 Gallery.

On the Left of the photo is Marley and to the right is Sativa, and they are both White-Handed Gibbons! Today we caught them “Monkeying Around”. Also if you notice above them is a new play dome jungle gym that we recently installed in there. They really enjoy using that thing! These primates can really teach you a thing or two on how to really play on a jungle gym. In the wild, Gibbons spend most of their life in the tree-tops and swinging from branch to branch ( The term is called brachiating). To view more photos of Marley then visit Marley’s Gallery OR to view more photos of Sativa, then please visit Sativa’s Gallery.

Here is a recent photo of “G” the White-Handed Gibbon, taking a nap! G still has a lot of growing up to do. Full grown he will get about 12-20 pounds in weight! Gibbons spend most of their life swinging through trees. G the baby Gibbon, already enjoys swinging around in his playpen most of the day, it’s one of his favorite things to do! To view more photos of G, then please visit G’s Gallery.

“G” the Gibbon is getting so big! This photo was taken today right after he got his morning bath. He gets daily interaction, and he loves to hang out with our Squirrel Monkey, Leila! They are practically inseparable. “G” the Gibbon, is very laid back and sweet; he still has much more growing to do, so keep checking back on his progress! To view more photos of G then please visit G’S Gallery.

FFWC Lt. Patrick Reynolds had a retirement party thrown in his honor here at our ZWF Facility! There was many FFWC and wildlife officials at the celebration. It was a very special honor for us to host this event at our facility. We had our tiger cubs and primates out for photo ops, and everyone had a great time! It was a wonderful party, and we were glad to have been a part of such an important event. To view more photos from this event then visit Pat Reynold’s Retirement Party Gallery.

They average about 1 foot in length, with the their tails adding on another full foot. Squirrel monkeys weigh 1.5-2.5 lbs, and are diurnal, or active during the daytime.

White-handed gibbons brachiate, or swing by the arms, from branch to branch horizontally and vertically. Their long, strong arms enable them to quickly change direction in flight and to catch a handhold if they fall.
