During my zookeeping and environmental education career, I have interacted and worked with a variety of animals, including brown bears, wolverines, red foxes, moose, camels, mountain goats, dolphins, sea lions, raccoons, porcupines, snakes, raptors and ravens. I am also a young adult author, and my debut novel ESSENCE was released in June 2014 by Strange Chemistry Books. Ask me anything!

If a zookeeper was going to do a veterinarian check up with a moose and the moose began to get agitated or frightened and reacted with a flight instinct and unintentionally injured a staff member on site, what would happen to the moose?

I would like to know how it was working as a zookeeper or animal trainer and which you preferred more. I really am working up to be one, but I have not yet decided which would suit me better. I want to be able to work with exotic animals.

I know I want to work with animals, but I don't know which job to choose. I guess I really just want to know if it's possible to have more than one job at a zoo and how do you know which animal related job is the right choice for you?
