I'd bring it to Bluffton every summer - that's what the library did
Posted by Fred Steiner on June 8, 2017 - 3:58pm

Toledo Zoo education representatives Nate Dick and Caroline Bearss, brought several animals from Toledo to the Bluffton Public Library on Monday.

Among the visitors were a python, a Mexican porcupine and a tarantula.
