— ! We’re kicking off 2021 with a brand new event series: Creature Feature! We partnered with Lake Tobias Wildlife Park to bring you face-to-face with fascinating species not normally exhibited at Reptiland. See these animals up-close and learn about them from knowledgeable experts. The animals will be on display in the Exhibit Gallery for all-day viewing and you’ll be able to ask questions about them as well. Each Creature Feature event will showcase a different animal so you can choose one or attend all three! RED KANGAROO | JANUARY 30 2021 Up first an impressive mammal from across the globe! The red kangaroo (Osphranter rufus) is the largest of all kangaroos! This marsupial is native to Australia and is mostly active during twilight hours or nighttime. It ranges throughout western and central Australia and typically inhabits open habitats with some trees for shade. Red kangaroos primarily eat green vegetation and get enough water from their food to survive in an arid environment. Using their powerful hind legs they can hop around quite rapidly—at times exceeding speeds of 35 miles per hour! Hop on into the zoo on January 30 to learn more! AFRICAN CRESTED PORCUPINE | FEBRUARY 20 2021 The African crested porcupine (Hystrix cristata) is the largest porcupine in the world. It lives in hilly rocky habitats in sub-Saharan Africa North Africa and Italy. Quills are 1 to 13 inches long of varying thicknesses that provide highly effective protection from predators. They eat tubers bark bulbs fallen fruit and cultivated root crops. They are active at night and sometimes travel up to 9 miles for food! They rest in their dens during the day in small family groups made up of an adult pair and their young. Come see this spiky species up-close on February 20! TWO-TOED SLOTH | MARCH 13 2021 Two-toed sloths are found in Central and South America. They are named for the two toes on their front feet (even though they have three toes on their back feet). Sloths spend most of their lives hanging upside down in the treetops and seldom move. Because the rainforest is so hot and humid sloths will begin growing small plants and moss in their hair giving them a green appearance. This also helps to camouflage them within their surroundings. Sloths eat fruit leaves and flowers and have the slowest digestive system—it takes them up to 1 month to digest a meal! Don’t miss this lazy yet lovable species on March 13!
