Celebrating and Saving Wildlife and Wild Places:

Hannibul, the ostrich who lives at the Detroit Zoo, was rescued from a private owner who was unable to provide appropriate care for him. He went to a sanctuary in Michigan, before finding a forever home at the Detroit Zoo where he has a lot of space to spend his days exploring.

 Take Action:

Before you choose a companion animal, ensure you have the space, resources and expertise to care for the individual animal you are considering. Do some research and make an informed decision when opening your home to a new member of your family.
