Osceola's claim to fame is having provided public education for almost 8 years.  His relatively easygoing disposition and striking appearance made him a favorite at presentations.  He's retired now, and enjoys plenty of rest and relaxation--and the occasional show of aerial power common to his species.

You can hear him calling in the night with an amazing series of grunts and growls that can rattle the entire compound with bass.


Magic Moments:

 "When he's showing off, he will bounce of anything that will give him a springboard.  I call him 'the racketball of the compound' because he can attack from any direction."
