The Raptor Trust in Millington, NJ is a fabulous place to visit and support. We went out for a special visit this week and had an up- close and personal tour by owner and operator Len Soucy. Along with his wonderful stories we got to meet many of his education birds including the barn owl, barred owl, screech owl, snowy owl, broad-winged hawk, red-tailed hawk, American kestrel, and peregrine falcon. The Raptor Trust has been in existence since 1968. The Trust has taken in over 80,000 birds and managed to rehabilitate and release almost half that number. Check out their website for more information. To see these photos larger go here.

Fall is a great time to visit the Central Park Zoo. The leaves are beautiful and the temperate animals are more active than ever. Check out Ida the polar bear as she plays with one of her toys. You can also ooh and ah at our four adorable Banded Mongoose babies and four Dwarf Mongoose babies. Don’t forget to walk up the hill to see our gorgeous Snow Leopards, Red Panda and Snow Monkeys.

Happy Halloween from Casa Lobo. Yes, that is Benny the dog, above, in seasonal garb. I always love Boo at the Zoo. It is fun, colorful and great for some unique photo ops. Yesterday’s visit to Brooklyn’s Prospect Park Zoo did not disappoint. The two baby baboons, Jabari and Azizi loved their first pumpkins. If you want to see these photos larger go here. Don’t forget to watch the short video of adorable Dwarf Mongooses with pumpkin and feather below.

While at the Central Park Zoo do not forget to go upstairs in the Tropic Zone. It is a happening spot. Along with the always delightful Mountain Coatis (Lobo, Zev and Wolfie) you can also see African Banded and Dwarf Mongoose with four babies in each exhibit. Come quickly – they re growing rapidly. Also catch our new Saki Monkeys who reside with two Silvery Marmosets. Don’t forget to catch the magnificent Eurasian Eagle Owl too. If you want to see these photos larger go to here.

A trip to the West Coast is not complete without a visit to the always terrific San Francisco Zoo. While at the Zoo we were treated to some unforgettable behind the scenes action courtesy of a wonderful Zoo Docent and some very patient Keepers. Thanks to all for their time and thoughtfulness.

I was taken in by their delightful Emperor Tamarins and made this short video:

The Central Park Zoo formally debuts its newest residents (and I think the cutest). Feast your eyes on the adorable Mountain Coatis named Lobo, Zev and Wolfie.

No – it is not Sunday, do not go back to sleep. It is Monday but Time Warner has crashed in my area and there is no Internet or TV since Saturday morning. So, I am positing this away from Casa Lobo. Our trip to the Bronx Zoo was filled with delightful visions including six tiger cubs, growing lion cubs and the always sensational bear cubs.
