Hello everybody, im zookeeper in Africa Alive, suffolk, England.

Im planning a trip to the USA to visit some zoos, of courses Cincinnati zoo as I love rhinos :)

Im looking for accomodation...if you know people, cheap hostels or anything cheap, that would be perfect, thanks all for you help ( probably for next April 2009 ).


take care,

cottoni.

sixaillette@aol.com if you prefer !
 
Hi cottoni,

What is your goal I would ask first? Which locations would you like to visit? Should there be any relation to rhinos (as you are a rhino keeper)?

Let us know and perhaps we can work out a schedule for you! :)

Regards,

I have a good friend who is a rhino keeper at Cincinnati--I'll get in touch with her and see what she can come up with for you.
 
Hi, thank you guys for the quick answer. My goal, visiting Cincinnati zoo is to see Sumatran rhinos, I must admit ! I've been thinkin about that for ages, and I think now I am ready to travel that far ( even if I am still worried about 9h flight ).

I am not currently rhinokeeper but I have been in the past when I worked in Dvur Kralove zoo with northern white rhinos. It was amazing, in the futur I hope work with the 4 whites rhinos we have got here at Africa Alive, Suffolk!

Everything is welcome, informations, contacts, friends, pictures... :)

Thank you Rookeyper for your help :)


Kifaru is one of our male rhino, born in CERZA zoo in France and now in UK :)

Hey matey 9 hours ohhhh very scary ;]

Try living Melbourne Australia app 23 hours to Europe. Once you have done it once it's easy matey.

Don't drink alchol, plenty of water and watch a couple of movies.The time will fly ;]

Yeah, i know 9 is not a lot, but ive always done only 1 or 2, so for me, its a big step...maybe, next one, after that, will be Australia hehe !!

I dont drink alcohol so shoud be fine :) Will speak to the person in the next seat :)
 
Hello, I will probably go to Los Angeles zoo and New York zoo too, if you know some keepers there, would be good.

I sent email to the zoos directly but sometimes they dont pass on the messages... Hope you could help me :)

Thanks for everything :)

Perhaps you'd do well to post on the discussion board at AAZK (AAZK.org)
That will put you directly in touch with keepers around North America
 
Hello everybody again...


My trip is getting closer...but I don't have any new from the Bronx zoo, do you know some people there that may help me ?

I start in Cincinnati, then San Diego and New York :) next month...
