@ Laughing Leopard Goliath has been looking forward to meeting the huge variety of other animals on this Summer Safari. What a treat to find Midnight here, too! Laughing Leopard I love to laugh. Wanna hear some cat jokes? Why can’t cats play poker on the savanna? Because they are cheetahs! Why was the cat afraid of the tree? Because of its bark! Why do cats always get their way? Because they are purr-suasive!
While on Safari, you met Midnight.
Goliath shook paws with Midnight the Midnight Happy Dragon.They both received one silver mole!
@ Brown Bat Goliath and Choose a name agreed that the variety of environments on their expedition was the best ever! Goliath and Choose a name exchanged opinions on which their favourite terrain had been so far, and which was the most interesting creature they had met in their travels! Brown Bat With all the recent news about bats being the source of the novel coronavirus called COVID-19, some people have forgotten how important bats are to us. A single bat can eat up to 3,000 insects in one night! That’s a lot of annoying mosquitoes that we don’t have to be bothered by.
While on Safari, you met Choose a name.
Goliath shook paws with Choose a name the Tabby Cat.They both received one silver mole!
@ Soaring Eagle Goliath and Turbo got so engrossed in the conversation they were having with their fascinating new friend that they had to hurry along so as not to be left behind! They regretfully bade farewell to their new chum and promised to visit again! Soaring Eagle My size and status in the avian world has earned me the title of apex predator. I really am the master of all I survey. I could spend my entire day up here soaring and admiring the beautiful forests I get to call home. Don’t you wish you could fly and enjoy it too?
While on Safari, you met Turbo.
Goliath shook paws with Turbo the Midnight Happy Dragon.They both received one silver mole!
@ Bearded Dragon Cat Blossom was distracted by the sounds of loud rustling as Goliath unfolded a very large tourist map, in the course of which he succeeded in knocking Cat Blossom’s hat off. “Put that away, do!” snapped Cat Blossom. “We’re about to pose with this amazing creature—the picture will be of your map if you don’t fold it up pronto!” Bearded Dragon I just finished my morning basking in the warm sunshine; now I think I’m going to munch on some of these yummy green plants and then take a little nap in my little hide-away where no one will bother me. I’m just a bit introverted and prefer my solitude.
While on Safari, you met Cat Blossom.
Goliath shook paws with Cat Blossom the Meadow's Secret Caterpillar.They both received one silver mole!
@ Black Scorpion “You never know what sort of critter to expect next, do you, Venus?" whispered Goliath. “You know, small, cute and furry or really quite, um, large, with—er—very sharp teeth.” Venus reassured Goliath that all the critters were looking forward to meeting them, regardless of size, furriness, cuteness and/or type of teeth. Black Scorpion Yes, I have a venomous stinger but do not use it much; I prefer to grab with my pincers. My favorite foods to eat are the bugs you find a nuisance anyways so I don’t think you’ll mind having me around now that you know that.
While on Safari, you met Venus.
Goliath shook paws with Venus the Ragdoll Kitten.They both received one silver mole!
@ Wolf Pack “What have you got in your tote bag, Molly?” asked Goliath. “It looks very full!” “I’ve come prepared for anything, Goliath,” responded Molly. “There’s deck shoes, snowshoes, tennis shoes, flip-flops, flippers, walking boots, Wellington boots—you name it, I’ve got it!” Wolf Pack Hello traveler! We were just settling down for our afternoon nap in this patch of grass. If you are weary from your travels and need a little rest, please feel free to join us. There’s plenty of room and there’s a lovely breeze wafting through the forest.
While on Safari, you met Molly.
Goliath shook paws with Molly the Grey Playful Kitten.They both received one silver mole!
@ Leery Lizards Goliath was very happy to meet Foxie here! They both swapped tales of their experiences of their travels so far! Leery Lizards We thought that teaming up together to tackle this labyrinth would make things easier, but these mazes are HARD! We’re not sure if it’s the pile-ups when all three of us slam into a maze’s dead-end together, or not being able to decide whether to go left or right as one of us is always undecided instead of being the tie-breaker! Now we’re really “on edge” at this point, trying to figure out who’s going to climb over and see where this path leads.
While on Safari, you met Foxie.
Goliath shook paws with Foxie the Red Feisty Fox.They both received one silver mole!
@ As The Crow Flies “What have you got in your tote bag, Honey?” asked Goliath. “It looks very full!” “I’ve come prepared for anything, Goliath,” responded Honey. “There’s deck shoes, snowshoes, tennis shoes, flip-flops, flippers, walking boots, Wellington boots—you name it, I’ve got it!” As The Crow Flies If you’ve ever wondered how far it is from point A to point B this bird is often associated with the phrase “as the crow flies” describing the distance as if it were measured in a straight line. When one says this it usually implies it is a much longer distance if one must travel by the constraints of a road.
While on Safari, you met Honey.
Goliath shook paws with Honey the Bashful Badger.They both received one silver mole!
@ Resting Mole “Let’s pose with one of us each side of our new friend and I’ll set the self-timer to take a group shot,” said Goliath to Mini. “It’ll be a fab souvenir of our time here!” Resting Mole Nope, I’m not stuck, I’m just resting. I’ve been quite busy digging around trying to find as many wormies as I can. I really love wormies and I have a whole underground room with hundreds of them stored away for later. I really do! If I could show you I would but you are too big to fit in my burrow.
While on Safari, you met Mini.
Goliath shook paws with Mini the Majestic Monarch Butterfly.They both received one silver mole!
@ Posing Bobcat Goliath was excited to meet up again with VV. They both took a moment to admire the amazing scene around them. Posing Bobcat ‘Bob’ isn’t my name; it refers to my cute stubby tail which you can’t see because the photographer thought my gorgeous face should be photographed instead. Don’t you agree that it’s my best feature?
While on Safari, you met VV.
Goliath shook paws with VV the Green Rapid Dragonfly.They both received one silver mole!
@ Pond Snail Goliath and Mimi got so engrossed in the conversation they were having with their fascinating new friend that they had to hurry along so as not to be left behind! They regretfully bade farewell to their new chum and promised to visit again! Pond Snail Heading somewhere, eh? Well, I am too. They say there’s a prize at the end of this trail, but I think I am going to be the last one to get there because I am such a slowpoke. Good thing it’s a journey and not a race. You go on ahead, I’ll be there later… much later!
While on Safari, you met Mimi.
Goliath shook paws with Mimi the Meadow's Secret Caterpillar.They both received one silver mole!
@ A Crash of Rhinos “I’ve written a postcard to my aunty to tell her about our amazing safari!” said Goliath. “She’ll wish she was here! Where’s the nearest postbox?” Chica shielded her eyes and rotated 360°, elaborately scanning the horizon. “I don’t think they’ve thought to provide a postbox here, Goliath. How remiss of them!” Seeing Goliath’s ears beginning to droop, Chica added, “Don’t worry, you can post your card after this leg of the safari.” A Crash of Rhinos Rhinos are HUGE, weighing over 95 stone (1330 lbs/600 kg). A rhino horn is made of the same substance as human fingernails. They have poor vision and rely on their sense of smell.
While on Safari, you met Chica.
Goliath shook paws with Chica the Arctic Feisty Fox.They both received one silver mole!
@ Zebra Spider “You never know what sort of critter to expect next, do you, Choose a name?" whispered Goliath. “You know, small, cute and furry or really quite, um, large, with—er—very sharp teeth.” Choose a name reassured Goliath that all the critters were looking forward to meeting them, regardless of size, furriness, cuteness and/or type of teeth. Zebra Spider Hi. Whatcha doin? BOING. You hungry? BOING. I can catch you some dinner. Do you like bugs? BOING. I like to jump. Can’t you tell? BOING. Ooh, I see a mosquito. Gotta go! BOING.
While on Safari, you met Choose a name.
Goliath shook paws with Choose a name the Tabby Cat.They both received one silver mole!
@ African Leopard "Wasn’t it worth coming all this way, Goliath," said Trixie, "for this experience alone?" Goliath, admiring the creature at the centre of the scene they were now in, heartily agreed! African Leopard You might find it a bit scary but climbing down a tree head-first is quite an easy task for us leopards. We can also jump very high (3 m or 10 ft) and leap over a 6 m (20 ft) expanse. With all those abilities, our outlook on life can be described with the saying Hakuna Matata! Yes, we really do say that in Kenya! It is Swahili and it is translated “there are no troubles.”
While on Safari, you met Trixie.
Goliath shook paws with Trixie the Green Rapid Dragonfly.They both received one silver mole!
@ Swallowtail Caterpillar Goliath and get-a-job-bring-me-a-mouse-and-a-20 shook paws and said “How do you do?” to the next creature who had come to meet them, and posed for a souvenir photo. “Why am I always on the left?” grumbled Goliath. “Let’s change sides.” “No,” said get-a-job-bring-me-a-mouse-and-a-20. “This side shows my best side.” Swallowtail Caterpillar It’s a good thing I taste bad to predators because that ensures more of us will live to go through metamorphosis. After I emerge from my chrysalis I will become a beautiful Eastern Black Swallowtail Butterfly.
While on Safari, you met get-a-job-bring-me-a-mouse-and-a-20.
Goliath shook paws with get-a-job-bring-me-a-mouse-and-a-20 the Grey Playful Kitten.They both received one silver mole!
get-a-job-bring-me-a-mouse-and-a-20 and you found 5 Travel Tokens!
@ Atlas Moth Honey was distracted by the sounds of loud rustling as Goliath unfolded a very large tourist map, in the course of which he succeeded in knocking Honey’s hat off. “Put that away, do!” snapped Honey. “We’re about to pose with this amazing creature—the picture will be of your map if you don’t fold it up pronto!” Atlas Moth One of the grandest moths to grace the forests, the atlas moth has an impressive wingspan of up to 24 cm (9.4 inches). Strangely enough, they don’t have mouths and do not eat once they emerge from their cocoon, spending their entire one to two-week lifespan living on fat storage.
While on Safari, you met Honey.
Goliath shook paws with Honey the Bashful Badger.They both received one silver mole!
@ Brown Agama Lizard “I’ve written a postcard to my aunty to tell her about our amazing safari!” said Goliath. “She’ll wish she was here! Where’s the nearest postbox?” MooDonna shielded her eyes and rotated 360°, elaborately scanning the horizon. “I don’t think they’ve thought to provide a postbox here, Goliath. How remiss of them!” Seeing Goliath’s ears beginning to droop, MooDonna added, “Don’t worry, you can post your card after this leg of the safari.” Brown Agama Lizard Many of us lizards are quite good at camouflage. We’re so good that you almost didn’t see me here! We can even change color depending on our mood! What mood do you think I might be feeling right now?
While on Safari, you met MooDonna.
Goliath shook paws with MooDonna the Strawberry Milky Moo Cow.They both received one silver mole!
@ Blue Damselfly Goliath and Audra shook paws and said “How do you do?” to the next creature who had come to meet them, and posed for a souvenir photo. “Why am I always on the left?” grumbled Goliath. “Let’s change sides.” “No,” said Audra. “This side shows my best side.” Blue Damselfly The damselfly may be delicate but is definitely not a damsel in distress. Similar to, and often mistaken for dragonflies, they are found on every continent except Antarctica. If you dislike mosquitoes (isn’t that everybody?), then you will find these insects to be especially useful in controlling the mosquito population, as damselflies find them very tasty.
While on Safari, you met Audra.
Goliath shook paws with Audra the Blue Beautiful Unicorn.They both received one silver mole!
@ Ribbon Snake Goliath is enjoying the view when Cutsiebebe comes along. "Look! A special prize!" says Cutsiebebe. Goliath looks down and sees something valuable. Well Goliath WAS here first ... Ribbon Snake Ribbon ssssnakes are a common sssspecies of the garter ssssnake, but isn’t our coloring more sssstriking with our beautiful golden yellow sssstripes? I think sssso.
While on Safari, you met Cutsiebebe.
Goliath shook paws with Cutsiebebe the Reindeer - Sleigh Trainee.They both received one silver mole!
@ Fire Ant Both queenielove and Goliath love the scenery at the next stop, and they both enjoy introducing themselves to their new friend, who has been waiting to meet them! Fire Ant When I sting it feels like fire burning on your skin. I pack quite a punch for being so small, don’t I? I am one tough little insect because I can survive extreme heat and freezing cold temperatures. If we happen to get trapped in a flood, we will all (often 100,000 or more) band together into a raft shape and float en masse until we find land again.
While on Safari, you met queenielove.
Goliath shook paws with queenielove the Black Feisty Fox.They both received one silver mole!
@ Sensitive Strawberry Poison Dart Frog Goliath was excited to meet up again with Pickles. They both took a moment to admire the amazing scene around them. Sensitive Strawberry Poison Dart Frog You have no idea what I have to overcome as part of this labyrinth community. First, try playing hide and seek with the neighborhood frogs who all blend in with the browns, greys, and greens of the rocks, grasses, and lands along this maze! I mean – have you seen my colors?? How am I supposed to hide with all of this on me?? And try having new pets to get to know you with a name like “Strawberry Poison Dart Frog!” Not a name that you just want to play leapfrog with, let me tell you!
While on Safari, you met Pickles.
Goliath shook paws with Pickles the Grey Playful Kitten.They both received one silver mole!
@ Spotted Owl “You never know what sort of critter to expect next, do you, Rosa?" whispered Goliath. “You know, small, cute and furry or really quite, um, large, with—er—very sharp teeth.” Rosa reassured Goliath that all the critters were looking forward to meeting them, regardless of size, furriness, cuteness and/or type of teeth. Spotted Owl Spotted owls make their homes in old-growth forests and hunt small mammals by perching quietly on a branch and listening for something rustling in the grasses beneath them. Owls cannot digest fur and bones and cough them up in a pellet about six hours after they eat. Scientists learn about an owl’s diet by examining the contents of the pellet.
While on Safari, you met Rosa.
Goliath shook paws with Rosa the Cupig.They both received one silver mole!
@ Ladybird Beetle While Goliath paused to drink in the view, Benjamin B. Buzzer started scrabbling in his rucksack for his portable, foldable camping chair. “What are you doing with that, Benjamin B. Buzzer?” asked Goliath. “We’ll need to get going in a minute or we’ll be left behind!” Ladybird Beetle Also commonly referred to as a “ladybug,” the ladybird is obviously neither a “lady” or a “bird.” The ladybird’s unusual name came from Britain, a reference to “our lady’s bird.” Its seven spots are said to symbolize the seven joys and seven sorrows of the Virgin Mary (“our lady”).
While on Safari, you met Benjamin B. Buzzer.
Goliath shook paws with Benjamin B. Buzzer the Bee.They both received one silver mole!
Benjamin B. Buzzer and you found 10 Travel Tokens!
@ Jewel Beetle “You never know what sort of critter to expect next, do you, Snowball?" whispered Goliath. “You know, small, cute and furry or really quite, um, large, with—er—very sharp teeth.” Snowball reassured Goliath that all the critters were looking forward to meeting them, regardless of size, furriness, cuteness and/or type of teeth. Jewel Beetle No need to spend large amounts of cash to buy fancy jewelry. Adorned with vivid iridescent colors, the jewel beetle is all dressed up and ready to go to any posh party.
While on Safari, you met Snowball.
Goliath shook paws with Snowball the Arctic Feisty Fox.They both received one silver mole!
@ Busy Bee Crowley was distracted by the sounds of loud rustling as Goliath unfolded a very large tourist map, in the course of which he succeeded in knocking Crowley’s hat off. “Put that away, do!” snapped Crowley. “We’re about to pose with this amazing creature—the picture will be of your map if you don’t fold it up pronto!” Busy Bee Yes, you heard correctly that bees are good at knowing which direction to go to find nectar. We even have little wiggles to communicate to each other. So, if you need directions to the center of this labyrinth just watch. What, you don’t understand my bee wiggles? I guess you’ll just have to ask someone else for help. I've got to get back to gathering nectar. Good day!
While on Safari, you met Crowley.
Goliath shook paws with Crowley the Brown Owl.They both received one silver mole!
@ Common Chameleon While Goliath paused to drink in the view, Bella started scrabbling in her rucksack for her portable, foldable camping chair. “What are you doing with that, Bella?” asked Goliath. “We’ll need to get going in a minute or we’ll be left behind!” Common Chameleon Uh oh, something is wrong! I keep trying to change color to blend in with this branch so I can hide from predators, but it’s not working. I need to hurry along and find something green. Bye!
While on Safari, you met Bella.
Goliath shook paws with Bella the Green Beautiful Unicorn.They both received one silver mole!
@ Longhorn Beetle Goliath and Roxas had shaken paws and were now introducing themselves to the next critter who had come to meet them on this leg of the quest, who was eager to make friends and to show off a carefully tidied natural habitat! Longhorn Beetle Well, hello there! I decided to crawl onto this mossy rock to see what was on the other side and I run into you! What are you doing crawling on the ground anyways? Aren’t you supposed to be walking? You need to move, or else I’m going to crawl right over you.
While on Safari, you met Roxas.
Goliath shook paws with Roxas the Green Beautiful Unicorn.They both received one silver mole!
@ Green Hairstreak Butterfly “Shall we take a selfie?” Goliath asked Julian as they drank in the scenery and admired their new friend next to them. Green Hairstreak Butterfly The genus name of the green hairstreak is Callophrys, a Greek word meaning “beautiful eyebrows.” Doesn’t that make me the envy of all who struggle with having “imperfect” eyebrows!
While on Safari, you met Julian.
Goliath shook paws with Julian the Brown Funky Monkey.They both received one silver mole!
@ Great Kingfisher “What an amazing creature!” exclaimed Goliath. Gray agreed with Goliath. “I’m seeing so many animals, birds and insects that I’ve never seen before!” Great Kingfisher Yesterday when he returned from fishing, he bragged that he caught one “this big,” stretching out his wings fully. It appears that it is a common trait of all who love to fish to exaggerate the size of the catch to keep up your reputation of being the king of fishing
While on Safari, you met Gray.
Goliath shook paws with Gray the Dauntless Dolphin.They both received one silver mole!
@ Scarlet Ibis “Shall we take a selfie?” Goliath asked Natalie as they drank in the scenery and admired their new friend next to them. Scarlet Ibis The scarlet ibis is a vividly colored bird with a personality that matches its bright plumage. It is an extremely extroverted bird, often found in colonies of thousands of other ibises. The ibis are also very inclusive of other flocks of large birds, such as storks, egrets, and herons. “Birds of a feather flock together” and “There is safety in numbers” are two sayings the ibises and their friends live out every day.
While on Safari, you met Natalie.
Goliath shook paws with Natalie the Green Rapid Dragonfly.They both received one silver mole!
@ Yellow Macaw “What have you got in your tote bag, Sweetie?” asked Goliath. “It looks very full!” “I’ve come prepared for anything, Goliath,” responded Sweetie. “There’s deck shoes, snowshoes, tennis shoes, flip-flops, flippers, walking boots, Wellington boots—you name it, I’ve got it!” Yellow Macaw Ahoy, me hearties! It be a fine day for a journey, eh? I’ve been hoping for some mateys to tag along with and here ye be! Let’s sing the chantey to pass the time as we journey into unchartered territory. Can ye peer into this spyglass and see if you can see the end up ahead somewhere? They tell a tall tale of some grand coffer to be had. Blimey!
While on Safari, you met Sweetie.
Goliath shook paws with Sweetie the Chocolate Milky Moo Cow.They both received one silver mole!
@ Rainbow Lorikeet While Goliath paused to drink in the view, Choose a name started scrabbling in her rucksack for her portable, foldable camping chair. “What are you doing with that, Choose a name?” asked Goliath. “We’ll need to get going in a minute or we’ll be left behind!” Rainbow Lorikeet I love all the colors of the rainbow, the brighter the better! What is your favorite color? There’s a good chance I’m wearing it. Maybe that’s why everybody loves me! I’m not shy or afraid, so I’ll come right up and land on you, especially if you have some yummy fruit, seeds or nectar to feed me.
While on Safari, you met Choose a name.
Goliath shook paws with Choose a name the Tabby Cat.They both received one silver mole!
@ Hummingbird Buffet “Ooh, that’s a scary looking creature!” whispered Mushroom. “It’s bigger than me! I’ll stay here and wait for you to come back.” “C’mon, Mushroom, it’ll be fine—it’s not so very big; it's a trick of perspective, and anyway, it’s looking forward to meeting us!” said Goliath. Hummingbird Buffet Zipping and sipping; those are my two favorite things to do! Oh my, look at all those beautiful flowers! What sweet nectar awaits. Oh, if I could just decide which flower to sip first! This one? ZIP. No, that one. ZIP. Yes, that’s the one. SIP. SIP. SIP. Ahhh!
While on Safari, you met Mushroom.
Goliath shook paws with Mushroom the Bashful Badger.They both received one silver mole!
@ Indian Peacock “You never know what sort of critter to expect next, do you, Sweetie?" whispered Goliath. “You know, small, cute and furry or really quite, um, large, with—er—very sharp teeth.” Sweetie reassured Goliath that all the critters were looking forward to meeting them, regardless of size, furriness, cuteness and/or type of teeth. Indian Peacock This species of peacock has the most iridescent plumage of all the peacocks. Their blue and green plumage are the most spectacular of all birds with their elongated tail feathers called the train. These feathers are displayed in a fan shape to attract females during mating season. This actually has a purpose! Females prefer the males that have more eyespots on their feathers and the resulting chicks usually weigh more and therefore survive better in the wild.
While on Safari, you met Sweetie.
Goliath shook paws with Sweetie the Strawberry Milky Moo Cow.They both received one silver mole!
@ Harvest Moon Cat Silhouette Goliath is enjoying the view when Fin comes along. "Look! A special prize!" says Fin. Goliath looks down and sees something valuable. Well Goliath WAS here first ... Harvest Moon Cat Silhouette Perched on a bare branch, this silhouetted kitty gazes at the fiery ball in the night sky and remembers all the wonderfully fun things about summer and contemplates the autumn season that will soon be here.
While on Safari, you met Fin.
Goliath shook paws with Fin the Arctic Feisty Fox.They both received one silver mole!
@ The Labyrinth x Goliath has had a wonderful day, and has met lots of animals for the very first time, but now it is time for Goliath to go back to your page and relax. The Labyrinth x Your pet faces a challenging time negotiating the bewildering path to the middle of a twilit labyrinth, with only a few flickering flares lighting the way. Just as the end appears nigh, the track doubles back on itself and leads even further away . . . The tree-lined route is dark and a little eerie! All sorts of creatures are waiting to greet your pet along the way. Some have a scary reputation—but have no fear! The little spider is quite cute and the snake and scorpion might alarm with their appearance but rest assured, they will not hurt a single hair of your pet’s fur or a single wing feather! And on successfully reaching the centre of the maze, what exciting treasure awaits your pet there? Goliath has completed the quest! The Summer Safari is now over, but PnF will hold a new event again soon!
While on Safari, you met Bluey~*.
Goliath shook paws with Bluey~* the Blue Beautiful Unicorn.They both received one silver mole!
