Due to unforseen circumstances Tim has had to change the date to 23/6/2012.

After a break of over 12 months we once again have a chance,to walk around Chester Zoo and ask the Curator of Mammals Mr Tim Rowlands all those questions that we have wanted answering over the last 12 months,about any species under his care.



The plan is to meet at the exit of the Monkey Monorail Station at 10:30 am,after which we will have a walk around the collection with Tim,stopping at various random points to chat and discuss various subjects,after Lunch in the staff canteen,Tim will give us a brief presentation on how the zoo's collection plan is worked and how its is planned what species fit within that plan,after this people are free to wander round the zoo and see what they like.



The walk and talk is open to anybody that can contact me via zoochat private message,if you cannot contact me via pm,then you cannot attend.Anybody under the age of 18 will have to notify me of their age,and anybody 16 or under will have to attend with a responsible adult.So if you wish to attend all you need to do is send me a pm with your real name and a means of contacting you in case of any unforeseen reason that may result in the event being cancelled.



Finally Tim would like a donation off everybody that attends to go towards the current EAZA campaign.

One of the highlights of the walk and talks is most definately the social side of it. I personally can't wait to chat to a good number of people I've not had the chance to see or talk to recently :)
 
There's nothing in my calendar for that date ... yet. Mind you, I'm the sort of person who has trouble making firm plans more than 2 days ahead.
 
Hopefully this'll be do-able, just need to wait on some other dates first.
 
Only the one place left so if you would like to attend don't leave it to late,or you will have to wait until we do the next one,and that could be another 12 months away.If you haven't been on one before you are missing a very interesting day,and don't worry that you may not know anyone on it as we have alot of new faces this time round!
 
Right thats it folks all the places have gone,if anyone still wants a chance to attend I will put you on a reserve list,in case anybody has to pull out for any reason.
 
Another very enjoyable event, thanks to Tim for his time, ZG for organising and anyone else I'm unaware of.
 
I hope you all had fun, I finally got to the zoo at 3.30pm :O(

never mind, hopefully on the next one I will be free of random chaos!
 
Another very interesting event, much thanks to Tim, ZG and anyone else involved in organising from myself and from my dad as well!
 
As above, a big thank you to Tim, for his time & openess, and to ZG. Very interesting day. Nice to catch up with a few people too. And meet new ones.
 
I'd just like to add thanks from myself and AgileGibbon - we both had an absolutely cracking day :)
 
Just a big thanks to zoogiraffe and Tim for a fantastic day. Fun and imformative. Met some great people and can now put names to faces (maybe!:rolleyes:):D
