Help us acquire our newest critters, a pair of Fennec Foxes!

We are currently looking for donations to help us bring some new critters to the Nature Center. Fennec Foxes are small foxes that are native to the Sahara Desert. Unlike Henna, our Red Fox, Fennec Foxes are leash trainable, so we would be able to take them to schools for educational purposes. We need $3,000 to bring these foxes to the Nature Center - $1,000 for each pup (they live best in pairs!) and $1,000 to supply food, vet care, enclosures, etc. Can you help? If so, give us a call at 273-6260 or email us at
critters@cayuganaturecenter.org

**Update** Foxy ladies! Cayuga Nature Center would like to send a great big THANK YOU to the Community Partnership Board, a program of the Cornell University Public Service Center for sponsoring the acquisition of a Fennec Fox. You too can help! We need to raise $1,000 more to bring these two critters to Ithaca. Make a donation today to help support the care and training of these special creatures. These new foxes will be on public exhibit starting in the spring of 2006. For more information and to make a donation call us at 273-6260.
