Episode 244: ....Why Don't We Try It Now? (with Emma Pearce, Hamilton Zoo)

The TEC Talk Podcast: Presented by Natural Encounters, Inc. · Dec 19, 2024 · 45m

Thanks to the magic of technology, Chris is joined from the other side of planet Earth by Emma Pearce, Carnivore Keeper and Animal Training Coordinator at Hamilton Zoo in New Zealand! Emma shares her journey through the animal care field in Australasia (including a brief detour into biosecurity), what it's like to be an "animal training committee of one," offers feedback about what it's like to be "pushed" by NEI, and how she's applying her animal training knowledge and skills to the human animals she works with.
