Since 2014, Grandma was a popular animal ambassador at Hickory Knolls Discovery Center. Before coming to us at 10+ years old, she had two previous owners. While we don’t know exactly how old she was, we can guess she was likely in her mid-to-late-twenties. That is an amazing lifespan as beardies typically live only 15 to 20 years. Grandma has been a favorite of our visitors and program participants. She interacted with thousands of guests and even travelled offsite for school programs and library visits. She will certainly be missed! We are grateful she was part of the Hickory Knolls’ experience for so many years.
