Enjoying the shade on a summer’s day…. Ruben absolutely loves the A-frame shelters in his habitat and when the African summer sun gets hot, that’s where you’ll usually find him. He even carries his toys and tucks them inside, and as we all know how much he loves his toys, that means he sees his A-frames as a safe place. Ruben’s confidence continues to grow, and his movement has improved greatly since those first wobbly steps when he arrived.

Giving a donation for enrichment at the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary pays for lots of different things – catnip sacks, giant balls, structures to hang toys up, A-frames for snoozing and watching the world. Toys for lions and tigers need to be regularly repaired and replaced – destruction is half their fun! Chino and Coco use their A-frames as gym equipment and Kesari likes to lean on his until he flattens it!

We often launch huge appeals for transporting animals or building new habitats, but the smaller contributions are important too – our natural habitats provide great interest for the residents, but they also love variety and anything new – so donations for what may seem a small thing for enrichment does provide great happiness and excitement.
