If you're expecting art work, just go to another blog for today....I'm showing more pictures from our EARS tour this week!! Sorry!
There is a 'domestic' cat that stays in with the cougar...and the dog just watches!
There are four deer also on the property. Each was homeless and rescued by state troupers...and named by them when dropped off!
This particular bear loved the water!!!
This next little one loved the tour guide, Andy!!! She or he (I can't remember) lost their room mate a few weeks ago and just hung on to Andy. He had peanuts, which the other monkey's would reach in and grab but this little one just wanted to be touched and rubbed. So sweet!
This is the types of monkey used in research...I don't know that he was but he won't be used for that now!
His expressions were priceless! Reminded you of a little old man!
Another one who loved Andy but also loved the peanuts! He would hang on by his tail and reach in the jar for the peanuts!
Another beautiful cat!!!
Looking at one of the enclosures and out area.
I could go back tomorrow to see all these animals again!!! Just awesome....but I guess now it's time to get back to some artwork! Maybe!

Tigers and Lions and Bears, Oh My!
Five of us had the best experience this past week! One of the ladies in the community, Eunice, has visited the EARS (Endangered Animal Rescue Sanctuary) in Citra. Actually, she has gone several times and suggested we do a private tour. I am SO glad she suggested and arranged the tour....what a wonderful day it was!!! There are 30 acres of a refuge to care for and foster animals no longer wanted or being cared for. I didn't count all the animals we saw but there are lots! So I'll be doing at least two posts on the rescue.
EARS takes such great care and shows so much love to these animals.
They have large cages which open into larger areas and some, if not all, have some type of pool! Yes, these cats will swim and play in the water!
I love the different markings on their faces! So exotic and beautiful!
This was the position of most of the big cats! They look very stressful don't they! HA
This is the male lion but because he has been castrated his mane no longer grows! Just a little fact I wasn't aware of! Who knew!

If you live in the area, you definitely need to take a tour of this rescue. I'll be posting more pics tomorrow of some bear and monkey!
