Zoo - Tumblr Posts
The Twentieth Summer
My summer consisted of four things
1. My job at the local zoo
2.My internship at the state Museam
3. Psychonauts
4.chillin with my amazing friends
Unfortunately the last item is not represented in this piece, but I feel like this was definitely a summer to remember, full of new experiences, cool people, and hard work!
Some time ago we had the #PaleoZoo challenge on Discord, sponsored by Prehistoric Kingdom.
Goal was the creation of realistic zoo habitats that could hause extinct creatures. As examples I created a bunch of them over the course of a weekend.
You see here a Triassic greenhouse, a Solnhofen aviary, the Ediacara touch pond and the Anteosaurus valley.

Bonus:
i don't really understand why you would be pro-zoo. like i understand nature reserves and sanctuaries where people can observe from afar, but it doesn't seem right to me when they're locked up in generally small confined areas for people to watch them do nothing all day. idk maybe i'm getting this wrong, and i still really respect you, i just don't understand this. like i interned at a zoo and felt uncomfortable with how small their living areas were and how they had no stimulation
Zoos don’t look like this anymore.
They look like this:
Good zoos do not keep their animals in “tiny spaces” with no enrichment. I’m not pro-roadside zoo. I’m pro-accredited zoo. Zoos are incredibly important for conservation and education.
