@ Wild Horse of Chincoteague
Bella begins her journey to encounter Exotic pets!
Wild Horse of Chincoteague
The wild horses of Chincoteague still run wild in a National Park, where they swim from island to island, and roam where they want! If you camp with them, be prepared to share your picnic basket, Yogi has nothing on them when it comes to stealing your treats!

@ Giant Anteater Walking

Blue And Gold Egg
The first painted eggs came from Mesopotamia, and because eggs were forbidden food during Lent, people painted eggs while Lent was being observed—after Lent, they would eat the eggs on Easter Day.

Beautifully decorated eggs “pysanka” are associated with Ukraine, and the oldest painted egg that was unearthed in northern Ukraine is dated to the end of the 17th century.

Giant Anteater Walking
If I played basketball, I would be a first draft pick! My amazing height, er, length would give me superior dribbling and blocking skills, but here I am, living my dream instead, searching the plains for anthills!

@ Black Cat Pouncing
“I’ve written a postcard to my aunty to tell her about our amazing safari!” said Bella. “She’ll wish she was here! Where’s the nearest postbox?”
Choose a name shielded her eyes and rotated 360°, elaborately scanning the horizon. “I don’t think they’ve thought to provide a postbox here, Bella. How remiss of them!” Seeing Bella’s ears beginning to droop, Choose a name added, “Don’t worry, you can give your card to reception at the hotel to post.”
Black Cat Pouncing
You cannot see me, I am the night! A black void of fluffy hair and a slow wiggle, waiting for my prey! A quick pounce and that feather duster is MINE! pixabay694730

poddu laddoo shielded her eyes and rotated 360°, elaborately scanning the horizon. “I don’t think they’ve thought to provide a postbox here, Bella. How remiss of them!” Seeing Bella’s ears beginning to droop, poddu laddoo added, “Don’t worry, you can give your card to reception at the hotel to post.”
Capuchin Monkey
Some of my relatives have some pretty big roles on the silver screen, we're cute! We're tiny! And full of antics and comedial relief!

@ Stallion at Sunset
“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 Bella to Aki. “It’ll be a fab souvenir of our time here!”
Stallion at Sunset
Racing the wind along the shoreline, rearing up in victory! The setting sun showcasing my fit form!

@ Lion Tailed Macque
"It's turned a bit hot, Bella. I'm going to put my sunhat on," said Schnupfen.
"Good scheme! I'll dig mine out as well," said Bella.
Lion Tailed Macque
If you ever come visit South India, you'll find me here, hanging out with family and friends! I know my facial expressions can be off putting, but I really am pretty friendly!

@ Dragon Fly Perching
Bella and Swish had shaken paws and then took some time to enjoy looking at the next creature in its habitat in a companionable silence!
Dragon Fly Perching
When you're out paddling in your kayak, don't be surprised to find me perched on your bow.

@ Echidna Foraging
“Have you seen those fabulous pink and white flamingo suncatchers in the giftshop, Bella?” asked Redington. “I'm going to buy one as a souvenir of our time here!”
“Sounds great!” responded Bella.

Echidna Foraging
If you can't spell Echidna, you can just type in spiny anteater! Because they are my favorite dinner! AND what makes me special, I am a mammal that lays eggs! Those platypus' get all the limelight!

@ Yellow Bellied Sea Snake
Choose a name groaned, clutching her stomach. "Oh, my poor tum. Why are so many of these places only accessible by boat? I've never been a good sailor, you know."
"Never mind, Choose a name," sympathised Bella. "It's ages till we set off back, and with lots of walking around visiting the different creatures, you'll feel as right as rain in no time!"
Yellow Bellied Sea Snake
If you're an unwary fishy swimming along, I'll glide over you with my camoflauged belly, and birds of prey can't find me from the air, I'm the color of the sea from the top!

@ Common Lizard
“Ooh, that’s a scary looking creature!” whispered Mimi. “It’s bigger than me! I’ll stay here and wait for you to come back.”
“C’mon, Mimi, 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 Bella.
Common Lizard
Common? Common? Are you kidding me? There's nothing common about me. Why, I'm brown and handsome, my mother told me so!

@ Cicada
"Hey there, Bella! Did you hear how Fresco fell off the landing stage into the sea while trying to get a better view of one of the creatures?"
"He was still squelching when he got back on the tour bus, ypmblessed!"
Cicada
Well, not just an ordinary cicada, I'm a Canthgaster Cicada! Look at me with my nose in the air, why, some might think I'm a bit stuffy! But honestly, I'm just following my nose to the best eating spots!

@ Cicadas
“Do you remember our last safari, Fox?” exclaimed Bella. "I remember being really quite scared, trying to find the way out of that labyrinth in the dark!"
Fox agreed. “D'you remember that scorpion? It was quite a shock coming across him in the light of the dim and flaring lamps, although he turned out to be very nice in the end.”
"It's hard to believe that was two years ago, Fox," remarked Bella.
Cicadas
Well, finding food is easier in pairs, meet my BFF Amy!

@ Golden Pheasant
Moo was distracted by the sounds of loud rustling as Bella unfolded a very large tourist map, in the course of which she succeeded in knocking Moo’s sunhat off.
“Put that away, do!” said Moo, in some irritation. “We’re about to pose with this amazing creature—the picture will be of your map if you don’t fold it up pronto!”
Golden Pheasant
My brilliant plumage has also earned me the nickname of Rainbow Pheasant, and my gorgeous array of feathers originally hailed from China, but you'll find that we were a desired export, and have adapted well to other places!

@ Hummingbird
“Great to see you again, Mark!” cried Bella. “I don't think we've met since we bumped into each other in Canada this time last year. This is quite a different excursion, isn't it?”
"It is, indeed!" declared Mark.
Hummingbird
When planning your garden, please be sure to add some brightly colored reds and purples, with sweet nectars! My favorite to bury my beak in and sip of the yummy-ness within!

Oh look ... you won a pet!

Iguana, I wanna! I wanna iguana go with you to explore the wilds!

@ Cotton Topped Tamarin Monkey
“It's so cool to have a species name in Latin as well as English, Bella!” said Frizzle, studying the detail in the tour guide. "What would we each called in Latin?"
"I don't know," said Bella. "We'll look it up when we get back to the hotel tonight!"
Cotton Topped Tamarin Monkey
Cotton Top is a great name for me, it looks like a lovely ball of fluff, and when the breeze blows gently through it, I look like Fabio on the cover of a paperback book!

@ Flamingoes in the Fog
Both Autumn Fall and Bella loved the scenery at the next stop, and they both enjoyed introducing themselves to their new friend, who had been waiting to meet them!
Flamingoes in the Fog
Wading out in the cool river early in the morning, the mists giving way to pale rose sunlight, matching our plumage, it's going to be a great day!

@ Hooded Cobra
“Shall we take a selfie?” Bella asked **** as they drank in the scenery and admired their new friend standing between them.
Hooded Cobra
Even a simple photo of me causes hearts to speed up and fear to seep out your pores, heh! Heh! Heh! Fear me!

@ Yellow Butterfly
Bella and Mochi 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!
Yellow Butterfly
Perching precariously on thistle, we don't mind if it's a little prickly! The delicious nectars are some of our favorite, making summer the best season of the four!

@ Bumble Bee
“How do you do?” said Bella to their amazing and friendly new acquaintance on their mini-safari, shaking paws.
VioletMystic chipped in. “It’s so kind of you to allow us to visit you in your habitat. Bella and I—and all the rest of us, of course!—are enjoying our mini-safari very much indeed!”
Bumble Bee
Call me Queen Supreme Ruler please. So much of your food and world depends on me being, well, busy as a bee! Please don't swat me, or spray me, I just want to gather pollen and help fruit trees multiply output and so much more!

@ Common Garden Snail
“You never know what sort of critter to expect next, do you, Nermal Stingray?" whispered Bella. “You know, small, cute and furry or really quite, um, large, with—er—very sharp teeth.” Nermal Stingray reassured Bella that all the critters were looking forward to meeting them, regardless of size, furriness, attractiveness and/or pointiness of teeth.
Common Garden Snail
Nocturnal by nature, you'll find me hiding by day in the dark leafy greens in your garden. We tried to ramp up our street cred by saying we were vampires, but we lacked the fangs to back up the claim.

@ Brazilian Anteater
“Have you seen those fabulous pink and white flamingo suncatchers in the giftshop, Bella?” asked Lillianna. “I'm going to buy one as a souvenir of our time here!”
“Sounds great!” responded Bella.

Brazilian Anteater
Somewhere there's a blue anteater hanging around with a pink panther, but that's now who I am, although, I really do love ants! You'll find me in the rainforest, slurping up ants like a pro!

@ Green Snake
“It's so cool to have a species name in Latin as well as English, Bella!” said Ted, studying the detail in the tour guide. "What would we each called in Latin?"
"I don't know," said Bella. "We'll look it up when we get back to the hotel tonight!"
Green Snake
Slithering silently, and native to North America, I'm hard to find in the greens of summer!

@ Costa Rican Moth
Bella was very happy to meet Heinrich here! They both swapped tales of their experiences of their travels so far!
Costa Rican Moth
Yeah, yeah I know! "It's so cute!" I hear it all the time! I was really going for fierce and scare the birds, but in a twist of fate, I make them laugh.

@ Yellow Mongoose
"Hey there, Bella! Did you hear how Fresco fell off the landing stage into the sea while trying to get a better view of one of the creatures?"
"He was still squelching when he got back on the tour bus, Blue Fire!"
Yellow Mongoose
Golden fur covers me, hence my name! I live mainly in Africa munching on small critters in the night, and my Mongoose family have a fierce reputation for winning battles with Cobras, but we avoid it when we can!

@ Fire Salamander
“I’ve written a postcard to my aunty to tell her about our amazing safari!” said Bella. “She’ll wish she was here! Where’s the nearest postbox?”
Morri shielded her eyes and rotated 360°, elaborately scanning the horizon. “I don’t think they’ve thought to provide a postbox here, Bella. How remiss of them!” Seeing Bella’s ears beginning to droop, Morri added, “Don’t worry, you can give your card to reception at the hotel to post.”
Fire Salamander
Fire Salamander! Yeah, because you can see my hotness shimmer through and decorate my skin...

@ Little Lizard
“Great to see you again, Starlite!” cried Bella. “I don't think we've met since we bumped into each other in Canada this time last year. This is quite a different excursion, isn't it?”
"It is, indeed!" declared Starlite.
Little Lizard
She may be small, but she is mighty!

@ Cobra Strike
Bella has now met enough "Exotic" pets to last a lifetime. As she exits the experience, she receives a wonderful gift!
Valley Between the Hills
The hidden valley between these hills is a popular locale for the smaller pets of PnF. Housing a city most pets overlook, the tiny prints of pets have made history with the largest tiny museum, art gallery, and comedy club in existence.

Cobra Strike
Rearing up and giving a final warning that I am not someone to be trifled with. Walk away, slowly and quietly...
Bella has enjoyed meeting "Exotic" pets, but it is time to go home now! Please select another pet as visitor, so it can also meet pets of every shape and size!
