Did you know- the maned wolf is the largest canine in South America, weighing 20–30 kg.
Their long, almost black legs allow the maned wolf to see above the long grass while running.

🌟 Renee in Her Element! πŸ’šπŸ˜

If you’ve had the pleasure of meeting Renee, you already know how beautiful and sweet she is. But here’s something you might not know: Renee was once facing euthanasia before we took her in. πŸ₯Ί

It was Head Keeper Nick who saw the true potential in her. He took Renee under his wing, trained her, and helped her become one of the shining stars of our Zoo. 🌟 From a troubled horse to a beloved favorite, Renee has made an incredible turnaround! In all her years with us and tens of thousands of visitors she’s met, she’s always been absolutely amazing.

Fun Fact: Renee loves to stretch her legs and run on the riverfront grass we have down the bottom of the park which she gets to do every afternoon! πŸ‡πŸ’š

Horses are truly magnificent creatures. Do you have any amazing horse stories to share? We’d love to hear them!

πŸ’ Fascinating Facts About the Common Marmoset 🌿

Did you know these incredible creatures?

Tiny but Mighty: The common marmoset, or Callithrix jacchus, is one of the smallest primates, weighing just around 7 ounces (200 grams) and measuring about 7 to 10 inches long!

Social Butterflies: These marmosets live in tight-knit family groups of up to 15 members, where they communicate using a variety of vocalizations, including high-pitched chirps and whistles.

Furry Fingerprints: Their unique, furry hands and feet help them grip tree branches and navigate the forest canopy with ease. They even have claws instead of nails, which assist in climbing.

Varied Diet: Common marmosets are omnivorous, munching on fruits, insects, and small vertebrates. Their diet plays a crucial role in seed dispersal, benefiting the ecosystem.

High Maintenance: Their small size and rapid metabolism require frequent feeding. They often forage for food throughout the day and are known for their energetic and active behaviour.

We offer unique experiences with little guys so make sure you DM us if you're interested in spending some one-on-one time! 🌍✨
