One
of the favourite attractions is the Rainbow
Trout Farm, which offers rainbow trouting in a fish-out
pond.
The
Newfoundland Pony Sanctuary provides an opportunity to admire
the animal that has long been a proud part of Newfoundland's culture
and history. Over three centuries the Pony has developed so that
it is perfectly suited to the rough Newfoundland environment.
