Drako was diagnosed with Late Stage Renal Failure. This is, unfortunately, fairly common in big cats and does not have a cure. They don't present clinically until they are in the late stages of failure. He was not himself, didn't want to eat or move around much. He will be very much missed. Love you big boy ❤️
SHE HAS THA POWER!!!! Zahara is the sweetest girl so it's easy to forget how powerful they actually are but this is quite the reminder....
Tigers can have a bite force up to 1500 psi, this Boomer Ball is 20" across 😳

SANTA'S HERE!!!!

Update: Drive Through is open but not all debris has been cleared (mostly some small rocks and twigs). Please take the bus (free) or one of our rentals ($20) if you do not have a high pay tire.
The Drive Through Section will be open later today. We have to clear the drive and make sure it's safe before allowing anyone through. There is a chance we will only allow 4x4 vehicles and/or bus only today. TBD. Please note we will have debris on the road in some sections.
The Walk About section and Nature Path are still open.
Maybe we will switch to White Water Rafting today only 😅

Half inch of Ice 🌨️ ain't gonna stop us (except that one time, when I fell, with a water bucket in my hand, and then I made more ice...)
