It's that time again where we all scatter to the welcoming points on Sondela and we greet our new guests. I worked in the wildlife center this weekend, feeding milk to the baby animals and cleaning cages. It is a lot of fun learning about them as you feed and see their natural behavior everyday.
The weekend has passed and we have all started in our new courses. I started with species care, which includes the feeding, caring and cleaning of animals. I absolutely love the fact that we get to go into the cages with them, it's very nerve wrecking to think that the animal can grab you at any time but there are some that are just so loving... Yes, until they turn on you!
The mongooses, juliet and ratatouly are like kids! Always running around under your feet, climbing your legs for a little attention. Trigger the cheetah , is of course the main attraction with the two lion cubs Lex and Max. The bush baby is of course all the girls favorite, Dobby, she urinates on her hands to make them sticky so she can climb on to anything and everything! Scrat the baby squirrel is the adrenaline junkie of the bunch as he can never sit still.
I love the interaction with all the animals because by having this you learn how to handle them one day if you encounter them. High paw!
