TAMPA – The Florida Aquarium recently welcomed striped skunk sisters Ginger and Juniper from the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo.
Independence Day weekend marked their first appearances as part of the aquarium’s animal ambassador program, helping guests learn about one of North America’s most misunderstood native species.
Ginger and Juniper sampled patriotic American flag-shaped frozen treats made with blueberries, pears and red apples, encouraging their natural foraging behaviors while providing mental stimulation.
