HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY, EVERYONE!!~ 💕✨

It's a gift I made for me and my partner's Anniversary with our characters, so I think it's a perfect thing to post on this Valentine's Day ^^

Is it just me or does the camera angle make it look like I have a mini giraffe in my right hand?

Something I posted for National Zoo Keeper Week in 2015... but worth sharing again. 🐧 “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.” Please thank a keeper or any animal care specialist to recognize & acknowledge those who have dedicated their life to the animal kingdom. #zookeeperweek #nationalzookeeperweek #connection #dedication #Zoo #zoofriends #SanDiegoZoo #TeamKeeper (at San Diego, California)

Hey there Mr. Chuckwalla! #AnimalFact: Chuckwallas are in the Iguanidae (Iguana) family and have managed to figure out how to live in the desert Southwest. Can you spot some shared traits with the more common green iguana?

Happy to be filming at the @ReidParkZoo today! Worf the Andean bear loves to start his day with a swim and then a walk around his habitat to see what fun enrichment his keepers created for him. . . . . . #ReidParkZoo #SDZKids #AndeanBear #bear #SpectacledBear #Zoofriends #videographer #videography #tucson #tucsonarizona (at Reid Park Zoo)
