Ornamental gardening meets wild animals

Who’s up for a family-friendly event featuring everything from live music and fair rides to a high-diving show, livestock, giant pumpkins, and exotic animals? You are in luck because it’s all happening over Labor Day Weekend at the Michigan State Fair, and Jim DeBerry, director of Cool Zoo Wildlife Conservation, and his daughter, Annabelle DeBerry, the junior zoo keeper, stopped by “Live in the D” to show off some adorable animals that will be there.

The animal kingdom is full of unique personalities, from the courageous lion to the sensible hawk.

A family of peregrine falcons is making the Detroit Zoo’s water tower a home to raise their three chicks.

Pretty soon, people will be coming out from behind the Zoom screens -- without the bonus of having the “filter” button to click on.
