Spiky Visitors!

Being located on the outskirts of a country town we often get to spot some amazing wildlife and today was no exception! Rangers this morning found some unusual visitors whilst checking the park.

 Down in Action USA our staff spotted a family of hedgehogs by the Buffalo Stampede ride exploring the grass range.
  
Mummy Hedgehog scurried off on her way but we were quick enough to get a snapshot of these two cuties!

Runaway Al updater: feeling glum

Little fugitive piggy Al has had a very busy and hectic week this week with the trauma of losing his mummy and ending up in the alpaca pen at Wheelgate Family Theme Park to the masses of press and media attention is a desperate plea to return the little fella home.

He has been one popular little piggy.



But still the search continues and still no sign of mummy.

On a positive note staff at Wheelgate Park are happy with the little chappies health and he is feeding well off the bottle.  He seems to be settling into his new home very quickly and is very popular amongst staff and visitors.
