Royal Agricultural Winter Fair

Last Friday I paid a visit to the Royal Agricultural Fair, where I met this little guy. His name is Crunch, and he wont be little for long. Crunch is only one year old and he will grow to be bewteen 150-200 pounds! He's a Salcata Tortoise from Africa who travels with AnimalPak, a company that does animal outreach programes. They visit schools and senior homes to show off their fantastic animals and bring joy with them, just like they brought to Toronto last weekend.
But Crunch wasn't the only fantastic animal I saw at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair, there were also many animals who are native to places a little closer to home; goats, cows, pigs, and chickens. Along with lots of fun family activities like face-painting, animal shows, shopping, and lots and lots of eating. I tried a deep-fried Mars bar that was to die for and I'll probably attend next year in order to try some apple-dumplings or home-made fudge! So check it out next year and maybe you will meet a friend like Crunch!
