Teacher expertise and credentials
I love to teach about all creatures great and small, especially if they are covered in scales, lick their own eyes, breath underwater or even fly!
I have had over 10 years of experience with animal rehabilitation facilities, zoological parks and nature museums.
I love getting people excited or even freaked out about this huge animal kingdom and the amazing things that they can do.
I was raised on Wild America, Steve Irwin, The Kratt Brothers and any animal show I could find, I have had all sorts of creepy crawly pets and find that the most scary might just be misunderstood. Reviews
