Hi, I'm Luke.

29 from East London, South Africa.
I volunteer at the zoo during most days (I work at night in the newspaper field).
Am seriously considering at looking into starting a small private zoo on our small (+-70 acre) family farm which is currently not really being utilised.

Really glad I've found this forum. I look forward to hours of interesting reading while I catch up and lots of great information. :D
 
i just recently got back from a trip to South Africa and loved every minute of it! im sure you will fit right in here and it will be great to hear some news from that side of the world!
 
Welcome, Lukeness!

It's great that you can volunteer at your local zoo. I would volunteer at mine if I could get to it more often :(
 
Hello Luke,

Welcome home!

Nice to have someone from the African continent amongst us now. I hope you are the first of many. Having travelled to East Africa several times, Ethiopia and Madagascar, I just love the atmosphere. South Africa, Namibia, Chad, Niger, Mali, Congo, Gabon and Zambia are still on my to visit list.

Incidentally, I am a volunteer at my local zoo too. Do zoo-guiding. It is indeed very rewarding. Also, I am a reptile keeper with African lizards.

Cheers,

Jelle
 
Welcome on the forum! Do you already have any idea how your private zoo must look like, wich animals?
I have a few ideas but it's still very open and I would love suggestions. It also depends on legislation here and what I actually can keep.
