The Animal-World Team
Dr. Tobias Jungle
Swainson's Toucan |
"Hello! I am Dr. Jungle. Let me introduce who I am and what I do!"
"Although my primary language is Toucanese, I have become quite well versed in many animal languages from talking with so many unique and diverse critters.
"Many of these animals have told me their stories. Some have described the experience of becoming a pet in human households such as yours, while others have described what it is like to live in close proximity to humans while sharing their land, water and air.
"These animals don’t mind a bit sharing the environment or your home with you - after all you are their fellow world inhabitants. But one thing all the animals, birds, fish and herptiles would like to do is to tell you more about themselves.
They’ve asked me to share a little about their history and families, what they need to be comfortable and healthy, and how much they enjoy being good friends and neighbors! To help me accomplish this, I would like to
introduce my very special Humans..."
Meet the Animal-World Team!
