🐢🥗 Mr. Why is on the move... and that can only mean one thing!

It's salad time!

Our Eastern Box Turtle loves digging into a fresh salad packed with healthy greens and tasty treats. Watching him come out for lunch is one of the highlights of the day.

Mr. Why has an important question for everyone:
🥬 Do you eat salads like this too? What's your favorite thing to put in a salad?
Let him know in the comments! 🐢💚

What a wonderful week 2 of summer camp!

We had so much fun learning about wildlife and how to care for our wild spaces with Explorers and Adventurers, and Imagining life throughout time at our time travel camp!

🎉🦎 Happy 7th Birthday, Chives! 🦎🎉
Our bearded dragon Chives just turned 7, and the Animal Team made sure he celebrated in the best way possible… with a very special birthday surprise! 🎁
We put together a tiny “birthday box” filled with his absolute favorite treat—super worms 🐛💛
The moment the box opened… Chives went straight into celebration mode and chowed down like it was the best birthday feast ever. 😄
Happy birthday, Chives!!! 🥳💚
