Everyone was fed and watered, all outdoor animals had extra bedding and straw dispursed, heaters triple checked, and clean up all done before noon today in case the storm hits hard… being a zoo owner in Michigan during the winter is a ton of fun, said nobody ever 😅

The first couple weeks are always a struggle as everyone has to adjust to a new daily routine… were already counting down the days to spring 🌺

Upgrades and improvements never end, finally moving our gate back off the road so it’s easier for trailers to pull in and redoing the one gate.

Enjoying a chunk of venison 🤤

When cleaning out your freezers this hunting season, please keep us in mind for meat that you would normally toss as well as butchering scraps on the fresh deer! We go through a ton of chicken, Turkey, venison, and beef.

Everyones happy to be getting some rays finally ☀️

What an amazing journey it was to share what we have built with all of you, we know how much joy it brought to many family’s. When choosing this decision, it wasn’t an easy one to make but we have so much support from all of you that we are extremely grateful for because it reminds us of why we began this journey to begin with. This decision is going to open so many more doors for us, it’s going to allow us to do so much more for our animals, our facility, and our family, so for that we are thankful and excited for this journey. Follow our page to stay up to date on all new animals, enclosure builds, and growth of our facility 😊😊

It was the perfect day to get a bunch of work done outside ☀️

Pipers Joey has been hanging out observing more and more each day… he’s been watching us clean all morning long. Time to think of a name for this little one ❤️

I was able to get a peak at Piper, our Bennet Wallabys Joey today! It’s a little boy! 💙 Bennet wallaby’s have a gestation period of 29 days in which a Joey is born and starts as the size of a jelly bean! They are born hairless and look like a little embryo, but have strong enough arms to make the trip to their mothers pouch, once they crawl in they latch onto a nipple and stay there for the next several months as they make strides in their development. As if wallaby’s pregnancy and growth isn’t amazing itself, they also have the ability to delay the growth of a second Joey two days after birthing the first! This means, they can grow another embryo and allow it to partially mature, this second embryo will then delay maturing any more until the first Joey vacates the pouch! Once the first Joey vacates, the second embryo will then begin developing again! This is exceptionally important in the wild, as mortality rate for joeys can be quite high. If a mother looses her first Joey, she can still continue a pregnancy and develop another instantly. Pipers Story: Piper came from a private owner. They had a kangaroo for many years, and when he passed away they decided to get a wallaby. Wallaby and Kangaroos personality’s are much different, and creating a bond with wallaby’s can be more of a task. They weren’t able to create the same relationship they were used to, and realized Piper belonged somewhere with other wallaby’s and a proper area for her species. She came to us all the way from Florida. It took almost an entire year to build a trusting relationship with her, now she’s one of our most calm, social-able, curious wallaby’s. She loves coming up to us for treats, will walk right into a travel crate for me, and trusts me enough to check on her little ones development! What a hoppy and exciting moment! 🦘 ❤️

Merry Christmas 🎄🎁 Hope everyone is enjoying their holidays and family time 😊
