Zookeeper

Zookeepers help with the feeding, cleaning and monitoring of animals in a zoo. They make sure animals live in environments that reflect their natural habitats as closely as possible. They work closely with conservationists to implement breeding programs, contribute to educational programs that raise public awareness about animal conservation, and often participate in research projects aimed at enhancing animal welfare and conservation efforts. Zookeepers typically find employment in zoos, wildlife parks and aquariums, where they play a role in conservation and public education efforts.
