Thank you, Eric, Deb, Shelly, and Bill. I'd never seen this gal, Anana, having so much fun, as she did yesterday. She was ACTIVE. Digging and rolling in the snow, jumping and pounding on the ice, and swimming in her frigid pool... seemed to be having a blast!
The chilly weather has always kept me away from the zoo in winter, so I'm used to Anana pacing and panting in the summer's heat :( Was really great to see her happy in the snow!
Blessings, Lisa♥ #7072572
