Natalie loves the beauty and calmness of nature. It has a way of soothing her. She also loves watching all the animals and and how they interact with each other and their habitat. Nature is also the most fun to explore and adventure from hiking and kayaking to rock climbing.
Natalie’s favorite animals are sharks- but specifically the wobbegong shark. This shark is so unique and looks so cool with all its tassels. Its hides really well and eats prey in one big gulp. She sees one at our zoo and loves him.
Natalie’s favorite outdoor activity is kayaking. Her favorite place to kayak was Pictured Rocks in Michigan. She said a tie with kayaking is rock climbing in Red River Gorge Kentucky where she is now lead climbing with her dad.
