SALISBURY, MD - The Salisbury Zoo has two new wildlife ambassadors.

Zoo officials have welcomed two chinchilla brothers, Phineas and Ferb. They say the two siblings will be a part of education programs to teach visitors about animal adaptations, habitats, and conservation.

5-month-old Phineas and 10-month-old Ferb are energetic and ready to grow and explore, according to the zoo.
