Species: Ringtail Lemur
Background: Leona was donated to us from a Zoo in the Catskill Mountains of NY. She was born blind and because of this she was bullied by the other lemurs who shared her exhibit. Her keepers tried numerous times to integrate her into their colony but failed every time and decided she would do better in an educational facility like Animal Adventures.

Species: Aracari Toucan
Background: After long deliberation, AA president, Nick Jacinto, finally decided to placate his clients who routinely asked to see a toucan in our shows. However, the large toco toucans commonly associated with “George of the Jungle” and “Fruit Loops” are messy, require large enclosures and are very difficult for young children to hold. Therefore, the little Aracari Toucan proved to be the perfect compromise!
Interesting Fact: Aracaris are the smallest toucans in the world and are very rare in captivity. But like all toucans, they have the ability to gulp and swallow fruit whole!
