It was always one of my childhood dreams to become a zookeeper…but then I realized I was really bad at science and there was no way in hell I’d be able to ever do anything with animals or medicine…
But these days, I get to live vicariously through other folks who make a living working with animals, and that’s just about the best thing I could ask for!
And one great example is a zookeeper in Australia named Chad Staples. He shares great and wholesome photos of his daily activities on his Instagram page and we think you’re gonna love it. We know we do in a major way!
Let’s take a look at some of Staples’ photos from his job. Enjoy!
1. I think you have a new friend.
That’s a huge tongue bath!
