We have two ���undertakers��� at the Ark Encounter���well, at Ararat Ridge Zoo, located behind the life-size Ark. Now, what do I mean by this? Well, meet Nzuri (ZUR-ee) and Mrembo (REM-boh).
Nzuri and Mrembo are our new female marabou (MARE-ah-boo) storks, the largest living members of the stork kind. Their names both mean ���pretty��� or ���beautiful��� in Swahili. Native to sub-Saharan Africa, these storks weigh up to 20 pounds, grow 4���5 feet tall, and have wingspans approaching 10 feet.
