I regularly give public speeches on the animals at Dartmoor zoo. I also give one to one talks on smaller animals like reptiles and help them to handle the animal correctly. Another role is leading the junior keeper experiences. In the mornings I part take in doing health checks and water and feed changes. In my junior keeper experiences I have to give them a brief on health and safety for the day, and then we do jobs like cleans and feeds while I talk about the animals, we then go on to give them a personal tour and at the end of the day I give them a feedback form and so far I have had perfect reviews.
