From Grizzly Man to the guy who just got eaten by his own trained pet, the teddy bear described here is hard to fathom. Very jealous! Wish it happened to me.... honey for the Honey.

I'm so glad it isn't me. Your first-person description took me through it as if I was there. So glad to know they are loved. Keep 'em comin'. Tough job but somebody’s got to do it.

It is so good to read about the behind the scenes care of the animals. Thanks to all who make this possible.

It's a <em>very</em> special bunch of people. The next time you're at the Zoo, make sure to thank them for all their hard work and dedication to their animals.

Despite the "fragrence", what a great opportunity to work closely with animals. Very cool. Wow, I always wondered who scooped the poop in that bear pen.

I hope this brings you a larger audience because you give us quite a gift with your words and your experiences. I wish I lived close enough to be a volunteer at your zoo. I would choose the big cats as my friends! As a long time fan of your blog about the animals, I’m so glad to see your words here, too.
