four to five people, all different animals. They didn't appear to be affiliated by species type, one was a mink and one was a giraffe, but they didn't seem to need to be similar heights to be equally as intimidating. "We don't want to be the SSB!" said one sign, held up by an otter. "Animals don't have to be savage!" was the text written on another one, this one by the giraffe. "Try to ignore them," whispered Nick, doing his best to walk past without making eye contact. "It's your fault, fox!"…

This class has made me question everything we have learned as zookeepers/animal lovers, honestly. I started thinking about how we breed animals, how we house them, and how we feed and clean them. The biggest change I have made personally is to not clean the entire ferret cage in one day. Since it is 4 stories, I now clean 2 stories at a time. I noticed that their behavior towards the clean section is different and they spend less time in it compared to the section that I did not clean. This…

The principle of competitive exclusion, also known as Gause’s principle, tells us that it is impossible for any two organisms to occupy the same niche without one of them going extinct (Hardin 1960; Gause 1934). This principle is easy to see in frugivores, grainivores, and carnivores that use discrete food packets, such as an insect or seed (Hanley 1982). MacArthur (1958) clearly demonstrated that each species is uniquely adapted to their niche and their competitive advantage prevents niche…

Hank Davis explains Caveman Logic to be vestigial reasoning that has been passed down from the ancestors of humans which has led modern day humans to behave a certain way in certain situations. An example of this that I find in my own life is in my personal mantra: Positive Affirmations are the Key to Success.

I am telling all that not to prove that USSR was horribly racist (although it was in a great extent), but to show how such a thing as kids’ books and TV-shows that are often being…

I was in a deep sleep dreaming about my life until BOOM, my mom came in and told me to wake up. I was walking to the bathroom like a zombie to the bathroom brushing my teeth, taking a shower, and changing my clothes. We had to get to the airport as quickly as possible, because our flight leaves at five o’clock in the morning. Even though I was mad doing this I still enjoyed it because we were on our way to Florida!!This is great practice because one day I will have to do this again. We were able…
