1. What's your favorite animal at the zoo?

“My favorite animal is probably Gus the galago, because he is very little and I like the way he jumps around. I also like how he lets me pet and scratch him.”

2. What's been your favorite experience at the zoo?

“I think my favorite experience is any time I've pet Gus. I love getting to know him and just watching his personality. He likes pets around his neck and ears.”

3. What have you learned from working at the zoo?

“Overall, I’ve learned how animal care works. I've worked with horses, cows, and other farm animals for most of my life, but this is the first time I've been able to get to know exotic animals. It's very complicated, especially with how the zoos interact with each other. I couldn't explain all of it here, but it's been very fun to learn.”

4. What advice do you have for future zoo curators?

“Hang around the zoo whenever you can. Things to do often come up very randomly and often are the most fun.”
