The Big Brothers Big Sisters crew spent a roaring good time at The Creature Conservancy, meeting a fascinating array of animals! From Arthur the Emu to Poco the Sloth, the Bigs and Littles learned incredible facts (Terk the Tenrec is an elephant’s distant relative!), got up close for some petting (where safe!), and cuddled some truly adorable creatures.

Of course, no adventure is complete without some sweet treats, so the group enjoyed some delicious ice cream to celebrate their new animal friends. This event was a fantastic way for Bigs and Littles to bond over their shared love of animals, and we can’t wait for our next Big Brothers Big Sisters adventure!
