‘Snuffle, snort’, which is ‘hello there’ in Herbie speak. But I will switch to English now. I love living here at Daktari. The best time is walk time, when I go out with people and the dogs. And food time is not bad either! I am Willie, the scrub hare, but the small children call me abunny. I keep busy patrolling theenclosure, which I share with the tortoises. They are very slow & lazy, so it is my job to look extra busy to make up for them.

Hi everyone, I recently got surgery to fix my injured wingand I’m stronger than ever! My vet (Provet wildlife Services)says there is a chance that I can fly again. Scotty is back at Daktari  I can see you are looking at me and I don’t blame you. As you know I’m Storm the Spotted Eagle Owl and I’m just awesome! I arrived recently at Daktari, because I fell out of the nest. When I’m strong enough, which I’m sure I will be, I will go back to the wild!

We love it here. There are many games that we play in the trees and around the Lapa. We don’t mind sharing the Lapa with thevolunteers at all. We also love to play with Loki, who is a greatbuddy even though she is much bigger than we are. Hello, we are the dormice and I just pooped on my brother’s head  I did it because I can! I’m sitting on him, but also my sister. We like to have fun & sleep. When I was just born, I was all alone with my siblings, luckily Daktari adopted us and they promised to release us on Christmas day!!!
