🖤 Say hello to Kiara, our female African civet! 🖤

It’s quite a rarity to get an up-close photo of Kiara, as African civets are usually very elusive! 👀

They’re also nocturnal, meaning they’re most active at night. During the day, Kiara would much rather curl up and snooze away hidden amongst the bushes 🌿💤 — making her a little tricky to spot on a visit!

This time, though, she was out and about waiting patiently for her tea… and gave us the perfect opportunity to capture this lovely close-up. 📸

Have you spotted Kiara or her brother Kovu during your visit to the sanctuary 🐾

Can’t leave your sponge alone for 5 seconds without the little coati thieves making off with it! 😂🧽

But honestly… how can we take it off Theoli when she looks up at you like THIS?! 🥹❤️Absolutely no remorse. Just pure cuteness and a stolen sponge. 😂

As the 6-week summer holidays come to an end, we’d like to say a huge thank you to everyone who came to visit us over the summer. 💚 It’s been wonderful welcoming so many of you through our gates, and we truly appreciate all of your support throughout the summer. We hope you’ve made some fantastic memories and enjoyed meeting all of our amazing animals.

Although the summer season is coming to an end, we will still be open 10am - 4:30pm and our team will be busy throughout the rest of the year caring for our animals and working behind the scenes on exciting projects.
Be sure to follow our page to see what we will be getting up to over the coming months! Who knows… we may even have some new arrivals for everyone to meet 👀

To celebrate the end of summer, here are our Keepers’ Photos of the Month – we hope you enjoy them as much as we do! 📸❤️

🦭 A week in our care 💙💙💙

This little seal has now been with us for a week after being found with injuries that we can only describe as being consistent with dog bites.
As you can see from the photographs, there are visible injuries to both the back flippers and front flipper 🥺😢
Thankfully, this little one is now safe with us and receiving the care, treatment and rest they need while we monitor their recovery.

We don’t know exactly what happened, but injuries like these are a stark reminder of why it is so important to keep dogs on leads around seal haul-out areas and beaches where seals may be present.

Seals are wild animals and, particularly when they are young, they may be unable to get away quickly from a curious or excited dog. What may seem like harmless investigation to a dog can have devastating consequences for a seal 🐕

Luckily he's doing really well this last week, the wounds are looking much better and we hope for a full recovery and return 🌊

Did You Know?

Did you know ring-tailed lemurs cuddle up to each other to stay warm and strengthen their social bonds? ❤️
On cooler days, they’ll huddle together in groups, soaking up the sunshine and each other’s body heat. This adorable behavior is also an important part of lemur family life—it helps them feel safe, connected, and part of the troop. Basically… lemur cuddles are nature’s way of saying “we’re better together!” 🥰

Our sweet otter Beatrix didn’t take long to make the most of her lovely clean water! 🦦She also found her stone for the day — and she’s having the best time flipping it around and playing with it in the water. It’s the little things that make Beatrix happy! 🥰

When someone calls you the wrong name… 🦉

That’s right — our snowy owl is a girl! 💕 And with that stare, the staff make absolutely sure she gets called by her proper name. 😂

She may be beautiful, but she’s clearly not impressed with anyone getting her name wrong! Her name is Lottie 🩷
