Meet Squawk! Parrots have some taste glands at the backs of their throats, most of their 300 or so taste buds are located on the roofs of their mouths. Parrots typically eat fruit, seeds, nuts, insects and even meat. P.S. Squawk's show will return this summer!
We love our giraffe, Clifford! He is here during the summer and spends his winters in Florida…lucky guy! Once the warm weather arrives, guests can experience a personal encounter with him. What's your favorite animal at the game farm?
Pigs are intelligent animals. They can be trained to do simple tasks and have great memories. Pigs have also been used in times of war to sniff out land mines on the battlefield!
The majority of deer are shades of light to medium brown. White stags are often described in myths, but they also exist in real life! White stags are rare and gorgeous! We are so thankful to have them at the game farm.
Meet our donkey! Donkeys travel in herds, which makes them great guard animals. They can discourage an attack of any predator, especially canines. Herds of cattle, sheep and goats can always feel safe when traveling with a donkey.
As we reflect back on 2019, we realize how grateful we are for our community and the growth we’ve received over the year! Here’s to 2020, it’s going to be another wonderful year! We can’t wait to see you at the game farm this spring! Have a safe and happy new year!
#FunFact – Red foxes are famous for their resourcefulness and cunning. They are mainly solitary nocturnal hunters who feed on birds, insects, and small rodents like squirrels, rabbits and mice….the more you know!
