Thunder was born August 30th. We ran a contest to name him and on October 4th the name was chosen. Thunder is very appropriate as we had been having a lot of thunder storms. Berkeley Bashaw from Virginia has been coming to Aruba for years and decided to adopt Thunder. She is happy to see the efforts being made to save the natural wild life.

Today we made a new picture of her and Thunder. Normally he doesn't want to be in the picture?

Thanks to our sponsors!
