Seems silly to repost my own post. But it's from last year's National Zookeeper Week and so it's appropriate to repost it this week. 😊 #Repost @zookeeperrick with @repostapp ・・・ The moment the connection happens the child's life is forever marked & changed. For some of us, it sets us on a course based in passion, fueled by a desire to know more & connect others, all sparked by that moment. The moment that they looked us in the eye. The moment they swam right to us and followed us. That moment they flew over us. That moment we could hear, see and smell them. Being a #zookeeper is a passion and a way of life. A life that sometimes feels like it chose us, and we are the better for it. #NationalZookeeperWeek2015 is this coming July 19-25. Help recognize & acknowledge those who have dedicated their life to the animal kingdom. #zookeeperweek #nationalzookeeperweek #connection #dedication #Zoo #zoofriends #SanDiegoZoo
