Bobcats Visit Phil
The Buttonwood Park Zoo is owned and operated by the City of New Bedford. It features a host of different animals and exhibits, the newest being the cutest little rescued Bobcat kittens, Max and Mayzie, who visited the Phil Paleologos Morning Show! They loved being on-air and showed an early talent for communicating effectively with staff. Times that the Bobcat kittens are shown are 10 am, 1 pm and 3 pm. Thanks to Keith Lovett, Director and Carrie Hawthorn, Education Curator, the kittens had a fun visit. Here's some information you may find interesting.
