27 January 2006
On Monday this week, one of our youngest devils, Zeehan, moved into an on-display enclosure. This 12-month-old little boy is currently living next door to his mum and aunty. What an adventure for such a little devil!Zeehan was living comfortably in an off-display enclosure, but it was nothing compared to his new place. He did a lot of running when he first went in; he could not decide what to smell first! There's a waterfall, rocks to run all over and plants to climb and play on. He loved the sandpit a lot; he dug some holes and scented all over it. The best part is a beautifully air-conditioned den to snooze in.
