Can't be out in the bush...so volunteering in the zoo!

I'll be starting to volunteer at Franklin Park Zoo in the next couple weeks, just a Saturday here and there but I am so very excited!! It's nothing like being out in the bush back home, and some of my friends who also grew up in Africa might find it strange --a zoo is such a far cry from being out in the wild, but being able to hear the Hadeda Ibis, lion roaring and leopards' 'rasping' is wonderful and just sounds so familiar!

I'll be helping out as an interpreter, explaining the animals and their behaviours, with a bunch of stories from home thrown in too, no doubt!
