I wanted to make a visual index of all the animals I got to help with while I completed my internship at the zoo this winter. Not only will this help me to remember what specific animals I handled and fed and cleaned up after, but it will serve as a visual memory jog so that ten years down the road I will be able to look back and say, “Oh yeah!”
These photos are not my own—I shamelessly stole them off the internets (hey, if you don’t want em stolen, don’t post em). But they do give a very accurate representation of all the furry, spiky, scaly, warty, hairy, fuzzy, feathered, slimy and lovable creatures that I’ve had the immense privilege of getting up close and personal with. It was certainly the experience of a lifetime! (And if I inadvertently left anyone out, please forgive me. It was a long 13 weeks.)
p.s. Scrolling over each image will tell you the name of the animal. 😉
