Mowgli & The Marangu Trail Outpost
  Thank you for all your support and help to make this dream come true!
We have been working on this project for 3 years and we want to thank all of  you who have donated funds and provided support that has helped Southwick's Zoo and EARTH Ltd. build Mowgli a new home.  He was a little unsure about venturing out into the exhibit for the first time.  He kept peeking his head out then going back in.  He did this a few times.  Finally, he started to explore his new home and is now climbing, running, and lying about on trees!  We'd like to thank the Milford National Bank, The Horridge family, and all the MAGIC Mowgli students for all their support and hard work! 


Inside Marangu Trail - Specializing in African Gifts, Jewelry, Big Cat Souvenirs, and more!

We are selling posters for $6.00 ea to help raise funds for Mowgli! Poster Credit: Belinda Mazur
