"See naked mole rats up-close and personal, pet guinea pigs and goats and meet a variety of friendly animals.
"Visit with our two female Tasmanian devils. Watch a large colony of meerkats of "Lion King" fame. These industrious little animals have a termite mound and an elaborate system of PVC burrows. An active family of fennec foxes, the small foxes with the huge ears, is always fun to watch. Plus, a kangaroo that lives in trees? That's right! The Matschie's tree kangaroo from the mountainous forests of Papua New Guinea is well adapted to life in the trees. These marsupials can climb trees like a cat and are good jumpers just like other kangaroos." ~ St. Louis Emmerson Children's Zoo web
