Animal Junction is an eco-adventure that spotlights 15 of our most popular exotic animals—Ziggy, a Blue and Gold Macaw; Oliver, the Eagle Owl; Fennec Foxes Frankie and Francesca; Spot, the African Serval Cat; Sydney, the baby Red Kangaroo; and Monty, a 9-foot Albino Python to name a few.
Animal Junction teaches children and adults about the fascinating diversity of exotic animals throughout the world. You’ll be amazed by the types of mammals, birds, invertebrate, reptiles and amphibians you’ll see. This fun-filled family show offers a unique encounter with the unusual and the unexpected.
Jungle Joe Fortunato has worked with exotic animals for 20 years. He has conducted extensive research and is a member of numerous wildlife organizations. His dream of starting a zoo was realized in 2006 with the incorporation of Animal Junction—The Teaching Zoo That Visits You.
