Animals, people and the planet are all connected.

So says Karla Majewski, creator of Planet Animal. She will be at the El Dorado County Fair in Placerville June 17-20.

Majewski, who lives with her family and more than 200 exotic animals on 4 acres in Southern California, says “discovery and exploration” await fairgoers as they venture into Planet Animal — designed to be a fun and educational exhibit where everyone can safely see and touch exotic animals from around the world, such as monkeys, parrots, sloths, kinjajous, snakes, alligators and many more.

“A large 3D Earth suspended from above and flags from many countries greet you as you enter Planet Animal, says Majewski, “creating the feeling that you’re entering one big wide world where plants and animals and humans are all connected.”

Planet Animal is all about bringing people closer together.

There will be two shows daily.
