zookeeper at your zoo.

I graduated with a Bachelor of sociobiology from the University of California.
Fragment, I have recently completed a 6-month project on Animal Welfare Project in

qualities reveal an excellent attitude to do the task which is why I consider myself a
persevering person. Also, I have patience when working with animals and good people
skills for working with the public. I look forward to the opportunity of meeting with you
