Some cute bushbaby pics of Barack & Obama for the holidays!
Category: Lilongwe Wildlife Centre | Date: Dec 24 2008 | By: bornfree
Hello blogsters.
You remember recently I told you about two tiny baby Bush Babies we rescued, Barack and Obama? Well an update on our boys.
They are growing well, they weighed only about 112 grams each when we got them and now they have doubled in size and weigh just above 150 grams! They were syringe fed at first every evening and early morning but now they are lapping by themselves and also eat fruit, grasshoppers and boiled eggs for protein.
Being nocturnal animals they sleep all day but spend all night chasing each other around their enclosure! They are becoming quite adventurous with their climbing skills but when it comes time to sleep they still snuggle up in each others arms for comfort and warmth - this is such a sweet sight to see. They NEVER sleep apart or alone.
Once again, please keep you donations coming, every little bit helps us to help rescued animals like these.
Have a very merry Christmas from all the team at Lilongwe Wildlife Centre and all the very best for the New Year!! We look forward to giving you lots more interesting blogs to read!!
