Enrichment of the mongooses enclosure
This month, we renovated the adult mongooses enclosure by adding more logs and plants.
The volunteers arranged the enclosure so that it looks more like their natural habitat. Old tyres from the cars were also recycled to make tunnels and provide the mongooses something to climb on.
We are adding fresh branches to the enclosure every week to make the enclosure look green, and give the mongooses extra things to play with – hopefully they will find some bugs!
