Roger came up with a good idea on how to feed the genets and raccoon dogs the other day. Exploring their natural instincts to look in hollow logs and dig away at bark he has hidden locusts in various logs . As soon as the new feeders went in they were straight on to them. The genets face was practically stuck and the female raccoon dog basically picked the log up and launched it.
You may also see a big water bowl in with the raccoon dogs full of rocks (this is not for doing their washing in), Roger noticed that the dogs would start to paddle in shallow dishes, he wondered if it was a natural instinct to move rocks and stones to see what was hiding under them. So clever old Roger found some nice round stones put them in the bowl and the female straight away started moving them. He hid some treats under the rocks and they found them straight away.
Roger will be postiing some videos soon of these antics.
