Adam do the animals get the same kind of meds as adults? You have to tuned in to the animals to know when to enter the place that they are in that is special. They are lucky to have you. And it seems like hard work but never a dull moment. Thank you for the careing you give the animals it gives us visitors peace of mine to know they are loved as well as taken care of.

Wow! What a wonderful job you have and you describe everything so well that I almost feel like I’m there.

Adam,
Thanks for sharing your typical day with us. I work at a zoo and I am continually amazed by how much work the keepers can fit into a day and how much dedication they have to doing their jobs. It is great to hear about some of the enrichment activities you provide for the hoofstock – not always an easy job to come up with something that truly enriches the day for the animals. thanks again for your hard working and for sharing your experiences.

When I am watching the elephant cam I sometimes see something walking by that looks like some sort of deer. Can you tell me what it is?

Moderator’s note: Native mule deer often roam about the Wild Animal Park.

Whew, Adam, that is some day! I agree with Barbara, it wears me out just reading about your day, never mind actually doing all you do. I am sure you are a satisfied, and ” happy” tired at the end of the day. Knowing you made a significant difference in the life of these very special animals has its own rewards.

Thanks for your dedication and hard work on their behalf, and for sharing your experiences with us. We truely appreciate all your efforts.

Adam, Happy Keepers week. I don’t know how you guys do it, I am tired out after just reading your article. I really didn’t realize what a demanding job you really have. It looks like so much fun but hehind it it’s alot of hard work. Thanks to all the keepers for all your hard work in taking such wonderful care of all our beautiful animals big and small.
