Melissa Perez, Tara Herrera & Bantuil Belliard adopted Simba because he is such a sweet donkey with the best smile (he showed his teeth). He is a very sweet and gentle guy. About 6 years ago he starred in a Swedish comedy which was filmed here on the Island. Even though he wasn't used to carrying people. He did a great job. We thought him all he needed to know in just a few days.

Thanks to our sponsors!
