Assam looking alert where she is being boarded. When I saw her a few days ago, she was a bit groggy - she was probably sleeping. Picture taken by the person taking care of Assam.

The countless rabbits seemed to always be on guard, never relaxing.

This dapper denizen of the deep has googly eyes and hand-like fins.
