This is Cricket, our featured animal this week for the Adopt-An-Animal program. Cricket was part of a barn owl conservation release program. He was held back as an education animal. He arrived at Turtle Bay at 8-weeks old. The trainers named him Cricket for the chirping noise barn owls make when they meet each other at the nest site. Cricket is one of the most reliable animals we use in our educational shows at Turtle Bay.

This is Loki, our featured animal this week for the Adopt-An-Animal program. Loki was found as an orphan in the spring of 2011 at only about 4-weeks old. Being an invasive species, he could not be released back into the wild. He joined us here at Turtle Bay at 6-weeks old and was raised by our animal trainers.

"I'm a member of Turtlebay because I feel it's really important to support the type of places that we want in our community, and Turtle Bay checks off a bunch of those boxes for me. It's got great trails, there are shady places to grab a picnic, and the botanical gardens are really beautiful." - Turtle Bay Member

"We are Members because we believe in Turtle Bay. We love coming here with the kids and we like bringing our relatives from out of town. Where else do you get to go where you can walk in and hold a nectar cup and have birds land on you? That's one of our favorite things about Turtle Bay, there are always hands on activities for the kids to participate in and we look forward to them being old enough to volunteer and spend even more time at Turtle Bay. It's just a really neat, hands-on experience."
