Monkeying Around!

Tuesday, April 3rd, 2012

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.

Sneak Attack!

Tuesday, April 3rd, 2012

Padah is our (Red Tabby) Bengal Tiger Cub. As you can see in this photo, she was very focused in on sneaking up on me and pouncing on me! Of course this is just her way of playing and is also her natural instincts of her just being a usual Big Cat. She shares a large enclosure with our other Tiger Cub “Shanti”. You can meet Padah in person on a private tour here at our facility! Check out our Tours Page for more info.

Donna’s “Photoshoot”!

Thursday, March 29th, 2012


Donnatella, our Tufted Capuchin, had a little “photo-shoot” today. This was a fun activity for both her and us! We captured many beautiful photos of her, and at the same time, she was just being herself, exploring and acting like a silly primate! We used her natural abilities and took photos of her in different areas of our facility. Donna is such a beautiful and smart Capuchin. She had a great time just being herself and we had fun catching these moments on camera. To view more photos of Donna, then please visit Donna’s Gallery.

Indah The Binturong And Her Outdoor Experience!

Friday, March 23rd, 2012

Indah, our new baby Binturong, went outside for some outdoor exploring/playtime. She was a bit timid at first when she felt the long grass with her little claws, but after a while she got used to her surroundings and explored for a little. She really enjoyed laying in one of her favorite blankets, and just feeling the outdoor breeze as she tried to take a nap. She is such an adorable animal! To view more photos of her, then please visit Indah’s Gallery.

Newly Built Enclosure For Our Lions!

Tuesday, March 20th, 2012

We recently finished building a brand new enclosure for our Lions “Abu & Simba”. Abu & Simba shared their old enclosure with our Snow Tiger “Nabha”. Well, between the three of them, they definitely outgrew that cage! We are still not fully done with the cage, as it needs some more work and additional modifications to it, but it looks like all three of the cats are sure enjoying the enclosure as is. They haven’t stopped running with all the new space they have! We will post a video up soon too, so keep checking back! To view more photos of Abu & Simba, then Visit Abu & Simba’s Gallery, or to view more photos of Nabha the tiger then visit Nabha’s Gallery.
