Pickles retired on February 9, 2023. She is no longer an active ambassador at Alveus Sanctuary.

Pickles

Our vinegaroon was born in captivity and ethically sourced.

Sadly, Pickles passed away in February 2023 because she was unable to make it through her first molt.

She is an ambassador for the importance of invertebrates and the misconceptions they face.
