Today we chose to go the an animal park in Davie. Flamingo Gardens is a not for profit park, where most of the animals and birds are rescued and are nursed back to health or given a lifetime place to live if they are too unfit to be released back into the wild.
A couple of inhabitants are Josh. A tame black bear used for parties and education who now lives in the park.
And Elvis. A ten feet long alligator that was rescued from a private home!! He was being kept as a house pet.
Why would anyone want Elvis living in their house?
There are many species of birds on site, many injured and not able to survive in the wild. Plus bob cats, otters and of course the flamingoes.
We had a great time.

I am glad you could visit the sanctuary. It is sad that these places need to exist, but I am glad they are there to help the animals, birds, etc.
