Howdy!
Are you ready to learn some cool facts?
Have you ever heard of the Rondo Dwarf galago? I haven’t ever heard of it until a few days ago. So, I thought I’d type up a blog post to share with you. The Rondo Dwarf galago also known as the Rondo Bushbaby is a very small mammal that can be found in coastal Tanzania. It is super cute with big ears and eyes.
