Loveable Lara

30 June 2006

This week we’d like to introduce you to one of the most personable little critters in the Zoo… the utterly adorable, fun-loving and one hundred per cent cuddly Lara!

Lara is the littlest of our kids in Kids Zoo at the moment, making her the real 'baby' of the group. She’s a mixed breed goat, with some definite Anglo-Nubian in her blood. Her striking coat is mostly a pale grey-brown, with a few white splashes and jet black markings on her face and dainty feet. Her beautiful colouring already makes her stand out from all the other babies, but it’s her personality that wins people over the most.

With her bright expression and irresistible baby-voice, you can always tell when her attention is fixed on someone, and you can guarantee that it’s attention she wants in return! Her tail wags excitedly when you talk to her, and she’ll follow close on the heels of anyone tidying her pen… always hoping for a cuddle! She loves being cuddled and stroked so much that whenever there’s need for a super-friendly animal to come out from Kids Zoo to a photo session or animal extravaganza, we don’t have to look any further. Lara’s place is always at the center of attention, and she will just lap up everything that anyone has to give.

If you’ve been to Kids Zoo recently, chances are you’ve already met our little girl, but if you haven’t, make sure you keep an eye out for her! Lara’s got all the love in the world to share around.
