"Junior Buddy the Jaguar is obsessed with Obsession! The fancy Calvin Klein cologne has been used as feline enrichment by zoos in the US, turning the largest wildcats in the world into overgrown house kittens; affectionately rubbing and sniffing any area sprayed with the cologne. And Junior is no exception! Some pheromone/chemical in the stuff keeps the boy occupied for an impressive amount of time. Here's a short clip of him interacting with a sprayed log. We just might get him his own bottle for his birthday this month!"

Happy the Owl is a juvenile barn owl, brought to The Belize Zoo as part of a trio of baby owls. The other two were much larger and far more aggressive in nature. "Happy" will become an important education raptor.
Many people in Belize believe that the barn owl is the "bird of evil" and they are frequently destroyed. It is the objective ofour "Owl Pal" program to let everyone know that barn owls are beneficial to the environment, and in fact, eat more rats than any other animal on the planet. "Happy" has already been to one school, and has charmed students and teachers.
We look forward to more successful "Happy" events, and this will work towards a more positive profile for all barn owls in Belize.
