βA shutdown falls on the Presidentβs lack of leadership. He canβt even control his own party and get people together in a room. A shutdown means the president is weak.β -Trump 2013.

One of my favs from my new job!
This is Isaac the Nubian goat π he can be a brat, but he loves attention and will get it any way possible.

βBoys will be boysβ as an 80 year old 34 count felon destroys every ally ship we have, effectively fast tracks WW3, and puts us in our countryβs 3rd Great Depressionβ¦
But if this was a woman, sheβd have been impeached immediately.
If this is all the job is now, whatβs the point? I love working alone and I hate training people. I guess I didnβt realize itβs such a big part of the job now?

Hey zookeepers,
Do you feel like your job has just become teaching others (seasonals, interns, attendants) to do your job for you?
Iβm in school for keeping and working as a seasonal keeper and I feel bad the keeper Iβm with has around 4-6 people sheβs training at once.

All my hard work is paying off and I am another step closure to my career goal! I have accepted a seasonal position as an assistant zookeeper at Niabi Zoo!
This zoo is really special to me as Iβve been a visitor since childhood, and Iβm excited to be apart of their team and see their future π
Iβm sorryβ¦ did I just see #SnoopDogg in a #StopTheHate ad? Talking about how the βreasons are just a dumb as they soundβ and he canβt believe they have to make an ad like this still? Did this man not just back #Trump by performing at his inauguration a couple months ago? π€¨π

After 4 years of calling Ryder a Pit/Aussie mix, finding out his long hair comes from chow or Eskimo was a shock, but finding out he has some lab really explains his love of waterπ¦

Buy essentials such as medicine, food, and emergency supplies, of course, but make those purchases at small, local businesses and use cash. The purpose of todayβs economic blackout is to send a clear message: We have the power.

Iβve decided to start journaling my zoo experience whether it be my volunteer days or my working days. Writing always helps me remember better, and itβs important to remember the routines, the animalβs names, and the processes.
