Eco Station

I talked some friends into going to Eco Station in Rocklin with us. We made an afternoon of it and packed a picnic lunch and played at a nearby playground, then did the tour. Eco Station is an exotic animal rescue that has a surprising variety of animals. The kids got to hold some of them and touch a few. A neat place.

Here are Aidan and Kai, holding a snake. Drew opted out of this one.



A few of the animals.



This one is named Stumpy. You can kind of see why.



Stumpy was once at a pet store. They weren't so good at feeding the animals regularly, so when they finally fed Stumpy and his friends, there was a big riot and Stumpy was injured. His leg was ultimately amputated by a vet, but he has a cushy life, now, at Eco Station.
