Aren’t they the cutest!!! They are only half grown in this pic. They were found orphaned last year in Oregon. They were turned over to the Oregon Zoo in Portland which called the Nature Center. In September, when the cubs were just a few weeks old, they were flown East to Asheville with an employee from the Nature Center. They;ll have their own digs in a quarter acre habitat created just for them. On Saturday they’ll take up full time residence. Until then, they go into their soon to be home only at night, when people aren’t around so they can get used to it’s smells, sounds, and surrounding.
When you leave your Asheville pet friendly vacation cabin to go to the center, be sure to check out the new Otter too at the Otter habitat. They are soooo cute!!! The center is really only about 15-20 minutes from the cabin. Take 240 and get off at exit 8. Turn left and at the deadend, turn right and look for the signs.
