– Born Friday, August 12 – Allow us to introduce you to Augustus – Gus, for short! Our two-month-old male Red River hog was born on August 12, so his name is a nod to his birth month. Augustus is slowly losing his stripes, but you can still enjoy watching Gus zoom around his yard, nudging dad, Huey, and mom, Zena, along the way. He also makes time to wallow, forage for snacks, have a nice scratch on a rock, zoom a little more, get ‘picked up’ by mom while simultaneously rooting in the dirt, and move a log that was clearly out of place. Such strength for a little hog!
Guests can visit Gus, Zena, Huey and Gus’ big sister, Pinto, in African Rift Valley.
