Hercules
was rescued from the urban jungles of Fargo, North Dakota. His age is
unknown, but very young from the size of him. You can surely see from
his size that he would not have lasted long on his own. He is much
stronger than he looks, though, believe me. Since his rescue he has
brought a feeling of hopefulness to our office. He has his own tank, and
everyone wants to be the one who feeds him each day, so there's no doubt
he'll grow up big and strong. How he came to be in downtown Fargo we may
never know, but he's found a home with us, and caring for Hercules has
brought the whole office together!
Hercules is currently residing in Leonard, North Dakota and is now being cared for
by a co-worker (Stacy). One definite trait about him is that he has
become accustomed to his feeding time. He has a UV light during the day
and a much dimmer light at night. In the morning when his bright light
is turned on, he comes to his water bowl because he knows it is worm
time. He doesn't seem amused when his "big brother Tonka" (a Norwegian
Elkhound) sticks his nose up to the glass, though.
