The animals are always changing depending on who needs rescuing and who has been released. I definitely wouldn\u2019t miss this. I don\u2019t know what his education on animals is, but this man has a natural gift.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/arubawego.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_3037.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-149\" src=\"http:\/\/arubawego.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_3037.jpg\" alt=\"feeding a camel at animal garden\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1200\" srcset=\"http:\/\/arubawego.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_3037.jpg 1200w, http:\/\/arubawego.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_3037-150x150.jpg 150w, http:\/\/arubawego.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_3037-300x300.jpg 300w, http:\/\/arubawego.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_3037-1024x1024.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-151\" src=\"http:\/\/arubawego.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_3042.jpg\" alt=\"entrance to animal garden\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1200\" srcset=\"http:\/\/arubawego.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_3042.jpg 1200w, http:\/\/arubawego.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_3042-150x150.jpg 150w, http:\/\/arubawego.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_3042-300x300.jpg 300w, http:\/\/arubawego.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_3042-1024x1024.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Tip: It\u2019s super hot there, not a lot of shade, so bring water &amp; sunscreen!
