Hello Parents!

About once every three or four months, the director and owner of the Capital of Texas Zoo comes to visit us! I don’t usually tell the children about his visits because sometimes emergencies pop up (as you can imagine with a zoo) and he is not able to visit after all.

Today, he brought a six-month old monkey he adopted when its mother died. This was the first time that he has brought a primate, so we were excited! He is socializing the little one with two other monkeys. I loved his opening line, “Angel (the monkey) may be cute, but monkeys do not make good pets!” 😝

You’ll also see pictures of our old cockatoo friend, Avery, and the dear blue-tongued skink, Sausage. They come to visit each time.
