After a brief hiatus, our three porcupines, Kiazi and his two offspring, Dave Sharpell and Jake Quillenhall (yes, those are their real names), are back on exhibit. The habitat had been closed for upgrades.

Gibbon

Gibbon Island’s long-term resident Muffy recently retired from public life and is enjoying her new home off-exhibit. Muffy is one of the oldest gibbons in captivity and was a successful surrogate mother to several white-cheeked gibbons throughout the years. Her last, Ari, has moved to Rhode Island to be paired with a mate.

Replacing Muffy on exhibit is an 18-year old female from the Gibbon Conservation Center. She has adjusted well and will soon be paired with a male.
