The Jungle was quite the experience! I cannot believe how much I have learned and got to do. I feel very blessed and lucky to have such an opportunity. My hard work and goals finally became a reality. Despite my last day was last Friday, I decided to go back and help out on Saturday even though that is my only day off. I cannot get away from the Jungle! I accomplished most of my goals that I wanted to do in the Jungle. I finished Jing's enrichment device (a new toy) for him and it was a strategic success, learn about the life of a zookeeper for all types of animals and meet some awesome zookeepers. They are such a crew! Even though my time there is done, I want to go back on Saturdays to help out still if I can. The only goal I have left is to get a painting down by Jing. I hope it all works out!
With all of the skills I learned in the Jungle, it has definitely made my life easier now that I've started in Expedition Madagascar. The same cleaning, diet prep and providing enrichment is very similar. So far, the only new things I have yet to master is getting to know the Madagascar crew and all of my new animal friends. So far, their personalities is the only thing I have in order to distinct between them all! In addition, I hope to learn even more in my next chapter of the summer. I only have 25 more days left until I'm back in the 563 and 608!
