Snacking Rana Listens For Mara

August 5, 2024

Every morning, Rana gets a couple of apples that have medicine inside of them. Scott or one of the caregivers bring them to her after a meal. She knows there’s something inside of them, but they are too tasty to decline. 

On this particular day, she was snacking on some hay in Yard 5 when she started to hear Mara calling in the distance. Rana started to make low, communicative rumbles in Mara’s direction. Mara responded with a couple of big trumpets, which was exciting to Rana – so our resident grandma started to hustle over toward Mara. Come back tomorrow to see their exciting reunion!
