Thank you for being a friend...


Have you read Owen & Mzee, A True Story of a Remarkable Friendship yet? Please do.... it's an amazing story of the close friendship between a baby hippo named Owen and a 130-yr-old giant tortoise named Mzee (Mm-ZAY). Owen was orphaned after the Dec 2004 tsunami. Villagers in Kenya rescued him and he was relocated to Haller Park, an animal sanctuary in Mombasa, Kenya. A frightened Owen adopted the elderly tortoise and the two have become inseparable. You'll laugh, you'll cry...
