Whether your child prefers cute and fluffy, scaly and slithery, or a mix of both, they will have so much fun being the Wildlife Geek’s special assistant that they won’t know they’re learning! To top off the joy, we bring a special gift just for the birthday girl or boy. Most of our animals are rescues with great stories to tell.
