The Thompson Falls Public Library went wild Saturday with a presentation by Animal Wonders.

 The nonprofit is located in Potomac, just outside of Missoula. Jessi and Augusto Castaneda started the animal rescue operation in 2008.

Animal Wonders came to the library to show off some of their rescue animals. Twenty-two children and their parents came to the two-hour presentation, where they met and learned all about Seraphina the red fox, Hara the Harris's Hawk (left), Harvey the African Pygmy Hedgehog, Bigwig the rabbit, Gaia the three banded armadillo and Chili Pepper the Patagonian Cavy (right).

Jessi Castenada produces weekly educational videos on YouTube. Animal Wonders also does presentations for birthday parties and other private events, and they host summer camps through Missoula Parks and Recreation. For more information, visit http://www.animalwonders.org.
