520 2 "Pursuing your passion includes a whole lot of crap. For
Bud DeYoung, that's about two hundred pounds a day! Since
childhood, Bud had a passion for animals. As an adult,
that passion led to the rescue of a bear who lived in his
family's house, then more animals crowding for space,
until Bud eventually built an entire private zoo around
his home in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Along the way, a
regular visitor named Carrie joined her passion for
animals with Bud's. Together they now educate the public
about animal conservation, battle the harsh winters and
blazing summers, and daily dole out love to the hundreds
of rescued animals in their care. Meanwhile, they teach by
example how to make the world a better place while
pursuing their passion. Welcome to the fascinating,
heartwarming journey of one man, one woman, and an amazing
cast of critters, whose stories will warm your soul.
Welcome to the wild life of the DeYoung Family Zoo. "--
