Description

Press release from the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo : September 22, 2021 Gidgee's joey has been making more appearances out of the pouch, and it's time to reveal his name! As a nod to wallabies' native Australia, we named our newest joey Tim Tam (Tim, for short), after a popular cookie there. At 7 months old, he has grown his full coat, and has begun popping out of mom's pouch for quick zoomies, or to explore small bits of the grass of the wallaby yard. It usually isn't long before he's somersaulting back into mom's pouch. We expect him to continue popping in and out of mom's pouch for another two months, or until mom decides it's time for him to move out. This press release was produced by the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo.
