Problematic Animals I Work With-an incomplete list
POKEY-kemp’s ridley sea turtle
Picky eater
Spits out food with vitamins in it
WOLVERINE-sand tiger shark
Steals food from other sharks
Bites at feeding tongs instead of the fish
VARIOUS CLOWNFISH SPECIES
Pretty much all of the ones we have have bitten me
In general, they are jerk faces
JUVENILE GREEN SEA TURTLE (from recent cold stun event)
Lil piggy at feeding time
Pooped on me (very stinky)
CARBONADO-carolina diamondback terrapin
Messy eater
Crawls through sand then disperses it in water bowl/newly cleaned habitat
GREEN MORAY EEL
Steals food from innocent sea star
Derps around habitat looking for food like he’s never been fed before in his whole entire life (though his fat rolls tell a different story)
If anyone knows how to keep these punks in line, let me know-because they sure as heck don’t listen to me!
