Finding Nature in Places Less Visited

I have just remade my personal website with a different software called Joomla! I like it and especially like  this article with its "new look."  Check out my new site and my travel adventures!

Nashville Zoo Exploration


This is my favorite biofact cart to use as I work at the Zoo almost every Friday morning. Here I hid it in the bushes while I ran to the bathroom. It really made the exploring kid painted on the side even more adventurous as he seems to be peering through the jungle. I really enjoy talking about nature and our zoo animals with visitors every week and hope I help a few people appreciate nature even more. This photo was actually made a week ago yesterday when I worked at the Eurasian Lynx exhibit where I particularly enjoy showing our full-body Canadian Lynx pelt and partial body Bobcat pelt. You do know that a Bobcat is a Lynx? 

Yesterday I worked in the African Savannah with the Lion and Zebra pelts and the Eland Skull. With the Lion pelt I also do a brief talk on "Predator-Prey" and how some animals with different abilities help each other to warn when a Lion is coming. And of course Africa is always fun for me!
