Olly Wilson is a ZooKeeper and reptile keeper out of the UK. In this episode, we discuss the dissertation Olly wrote for his degree which focused on habitat preference of amphibians in Madagascar. We also discuss the day-to-day roles of being a zookeeper and the tactics Olly used to convince the zoo-owners to upgrade a tortoise enclosure from a small unenriched cage to a full-paddock style enclosure that includes many layers of enrichment. This episode is key for those of you looking to pursue a career in zookeeping.
