I think you've designed and built the perfect sanctuary. The enclosures nestled in amongst the trees with all the sounds and scents of nature, gives the animals such a beautiful, peaceful place to call home. It's incredible how much you've done already and I'm excited to see what comes next! 💚

It is so beautiful. All the trees around and over the cages are also perfect shelter for the hurricane season.

Big Mac recognizes your voice and comes towards you even without calling. Lovely!

I NEVER realized how long a African Porcupine lives that's so cool they have the second longest lifespan after a Mole rat 🍍😍💙💜 Nice update and tour Bellowing Acres 🔥

😅😅 What is Mac trying to do? He's so funny. He just swims up to Chris and opened his mouth... like "feed me!".😅

Yeah he obviously love him❤ it is so wholesome

I think it would be awesome to build a huge walk in aviary with lots of natural foliage for people to walk through. Love what you guys do, excited for what’s to come!

OMG YES!!! Pitched Roof too, would be so dreamy

Thank goodness for the daily vlogs too - I love seeing the updates closer to when they happen - but I'm so glad you have this channel too. So much information that don't make it into the daily feedings. Thanks for upkeeping both channels! Y'all could put a mortar/pestle set on your wish list to have near the walkway and kill the ticks there.

Love your sanctuary well done love you guys!!!❤❤❤🐊🐊🐊🌻💚🐾🐾🐾

😂 “They want Little Dude to retire to a quiet peaceful place” as screaming foxes will literally be adjacent I think. Just Kidding, I know Bellowing Acres provides the BEST quality care, nutrition + spacious enclosure for him 🌳🪵🌟! Particularly compared to common industry-standards. Omg HOW did Chris spot that tiny caterpillar 🐛?! So impressive! His face 👀 when Gabby hands him the tick 😂! So excited for the hopefully good 🤞🏼 trail-cam news. Omg fundraising Bam 💰💵🐈‍⬛ 😂 🤦🏻‍♀️ Gorgeous property; we can grasp the magnitude & beauty of it moreso w this extensive tour, Loved it! Thank You Both for all your hard work + hearts, always!

Hazel 🦊 and Big Mac 🐊are so cute!!

thanks for the tour, loved seeing the layout of the santuary! ❤

Can’t wait to see the new gators you guys got!

Had some problems hearing Chris, but not Gabby. Glad to see you do a post! Always enjoy this channel. Love Gator Chris's channel as well!❤❤

Thank you for the walkthrough, looks amazing! ❤

You guys are the best. Love the way your place is looking. Hope you all have a wonderful week🐊🦜🦨 ✨️👌

Great job on the video you've made a ton of progress in a year

I can't wait to see if Dino is actually eating. That would be amazing if he is. I'm praying the camera catches him taking the food. ❤❤

I can’t wait until your tour is open! I live in Gainesville and I hope SFC gets to help you out with your sanctuary!❤️

Love the sanctuary

been waiting for the sanctuary tour! 😍

This is place it amazing animals sanctuary rescue many animals make a new homes for the animals it awesome this is my dream creative

Can't believe you guts are in Interlachen. Can't wait until you start having tours.

the new bird Azula is so wonderful and sweet and cute! welcome sweet Amazon Parrot girl. you have found the best place. Blessings.

Thank you. Fantastic set up

It looks really good guys. I think you did pretty great job and I love that you know every animal and they recognize you 😊 you can see they love you too😊

Loved this comprehensive tour of the sanctuary! Excited for you guys about all the future plans - like the sick bay/hospital ward enclosure and also the massive gator enclosure to take in 5-8 footers. 🐊

Would love to see a video seeing Gabby getting the animals food bowls ready. How you decide what and how much each animal gets.

Lovelly walk through. I am glad Big Mack and Bella have gotten better and are getting along with each other. I hope Dino eats soon. A trail cam in his enclosure is a great idea.

❤Awwww, BAMBI!❤ We see the other wonderful animals often in the daily vlogs at Gator Chris, but not much Bambi. She is the only critter at Bellowing Acres who could come home with me.😊

Absolutely love your humanitarian channel. ❤

Thank you for the walking tour! Magnificent facility!! I know you both are so proud!!

Excellent walk thru guys absolutely love what you've done so far and love your plans great idea for another aviary for Bean Petri and Zazu I'm sure they'll absolutely love it as well as the new gator pond. Absolutely love Lil Dudes new enclosure too you guys are doing fantastic building this sanctuary I absolutely love the Daily vlogs you do they are fantastic your doing an excellent job with them appreciate you both and hope ya had a great weekend.

GatorChris channel daily vlogs are the BEST!!! you get to see all the individual animals personalities and all the daily training Chris does with so many animals.

Congratulations to you both the sanctuary is beautiful!💜💜💜

You guys are doing awesome work. Thank you

Looking so rustic and relaxing. A wonderful sanctuary set up

Wow all the hard work that has been done and the daily chores to care for all the animals. Chris and Gabby we pray Dino is the one taking the food and to gain the weight he needs.

Why would anyone try escaping the 5 star retirement home plus the food are 5 star meals. I wish I was an animal to live there lol..

I would be as thrilled as you are if Dino is caught on trail cam eating! Also looking forward very much to the lagoon build, when that happens.

Really like to watch all your vlogs and truly love you guys !!

Oh, those 3 prairie dogs lined up...how cute!

Such a nice calm space for all of the animals. ❤. Sadly I don’t think most understand that zoos and similar often get rid of animals that they no longer have a need for. Glad you are offering sanctuary for some.

Hazel...my favorite foodie

Those enclosures are aces 👌

Just lovely

You are so inspiring! The sanctuary is awesome.

It's the truest form of love when you kill ticks for your partner XD It's wild to think how Dino hasn't even been introduced on this channel. Over on Chris' vlogs we've seen him and the whole battle to healing and diagnosis. If anyone here doesn't watch GatorChris, you're missing out! Emu watering, Chloe strutting, Jellybean stabbing, and tortoise/pig eating asmr XD

Let´s goo!

I adore your enclosures; they are all beautiful! I would like to build some in a similar fashion with cattle panels eventually instead of using welded wire panels. There's really no quality higher than building something yourself, and I'm sure your coatis love having (what looks to be) 10+ feet high enclosures as well.

I can't wait to see the trail cam evidence. I sure hope that it's Dino eating. That would be good news. I'm really pulling for him.

Those alligators have the BIGGEST inclosures on KZread 🤠🤙

Chris, I had no idea there are caterpillars that can make people that sick. Are they venomous or poisonous? I’ve always handled the caterpillars here in East Tennessee. We always called them wooly worms. The old wive’s tales say you can predict how bad the winter will be by the colors on the caterpillars. 😊 Thanks for the guided tour. The sanctuary is amazing. I sure hope Dino is the one eating the food. Bless him. Hugs from Tennessee. 💕

Yes! In Wv if we saw black wooly worms in the summer…then the coming winter would be hard. Then we take a gulp of shine and it’s all fine.

Save the tadpoles. Leave the ponds be for now❤

My experience has been that Large Toos pose a nasty bite. I’ve learned not to allow any large parrots on my shoulder. Amazons can be perch potatoes and get overweight. I’m sure your blue front will love her new home.❤

"How Big is ChipDrop? You'll receive an entire dump trucks worth of wood chips, which can be as much as 20 cubic yards, approximately. There is no way to request a specific amount; you won't know how much you're getting until it shows up. It could be as little as 4 yards."

The emu's need a pond just like the gators have. They would live in it.

Now you need to build guest quarters where people can come and rent them out and volunteer!!!

education ambassadors. 🎊

Can u pour sand into the concrete gator ponds? I’d assume but because it’s be harder to drain and clean

Thanks for the video! Would it not be possible to give a paddling pool to the emus? Like the tank you've got for the gator hospital enclosure, for example. (Or that tank, until it gets built....?)

Could you make a cement pond for the Emus? Nothing huge or anything. Kind of like a giant tortoises pond.

You not afraid the porcupine is gonna dig like there's no tomorrow? He'll eat that big tree like a beaver and have his den in the roots. I guess. 🔆

Thank you for doing this, you never shown walking around it, if a bad storm comes, do you have a way to cover the birds and other animals up ? Or can they handle most weather. Do you have people that come out and trim trees? And do that stuff..

you've got to go to GatorChris Channel on KZread. They cover the cages outside completely with heavy plastic. On really bad storms they bring all the birds in the house or porch in medium large individual cages.
