OUR ANIMALS
SPECIES IN OUR CARE
Conservation Stewardship & Professional Engagement
At Twin Pine Farm & Exotics Conservation Foundation (TPFECF), the species under our stewardship are managed within conservation-focused programs that support animal welfare, scientific collaboration, and long term species sustainability.
Our animal care practices are guided by species-specific behavioral needs, veterinary oversight, and evidence based husbandry approaches designed to promote both physical and psychological well-being.
TPFECF operates as a closed conservation support facility and is not open for general public visitation. Educational engagement and professional site visits are offered selectively and by appointment for academic
institutions, conservation partners, and qualified professionals.
Through structured outreach, collaboration, and training initiatives, TPFECF contributes to advancing conservation knowledge, responsible species management, and the development of future wildlife professionals.
TPFECF remains committed to maintaining high standards of animal welfare, biosecurity, and conservation integrity across all programs.

Sloths are noted for their slowness of movement and spend most of their lives hanging upside down in the trees of the tropical rainforests of South America and Central America.
Capybara
The capybara is the largest living rodent, native to South America. Its close relatives include guinea pigs and rock cavies, and it is more distantly related to the agouti, the chinchilla, and the nutria.
African Serval
The serval is a wild small cat native to Africa. It is widespread in sub-Saharan countries, where it inhabits grasslands, wetlands, moorlands and bamboo thickets. Across its range, it occurs in protected areas, and hunting it is either prohibited or regulated in range countries.
Lemurs
We house red ruffed and black & white ruffed Lemurs. They are endemic to the island of Madagascar. Most existing lemurs are small, have a pointed snout, large eyes, and a long tail. They chiefly live in trees and are active at night. Lemurs share resemblance with other primates, but evolved independently from monkeys and apes. Due to Madagascar's highly seasonal climate, lemur evolution has produced a level of species diversity rivaling that of any other primate group.
Ducks & Chickens
At TPFECF, we take great pride in caring for ducks and chickens too, ensuring they have a safe and nurturing environment. Our dedicated team provides them with nutritious and plenty of space to roam and explore.
Sulcata Tortoise
The Sulcata tortoise is one of largest tortoise species, renowned for its impressive size and distinctive spiky shell. Native to the grasslands and savannas of Africa, these gentle giants can live for over 50 years.
