Hello Tom though we have never spoken iv known you for more then 25 years already.
Like you I am first and foremost a private keeper, I am the Canadian who produced more crocodilian and cobra species then any zoos or private that I know about, sadly it was a reptile zoo that iv helped conceive that has legally stopped me from keeping then by voting for a new legislation on the ban of crocodilian and venomous in Quebec, probably why I keep a low profile with any CITES animal ever sins.
I wanted to offer my greetings and say it’s a pleasure to read you on this forum.
Cheers!
Frank I don’t believe any zoo would want passionate staff, like you said they prefer having YES MAN kind of peoples.
Several years ago I took care of my friends entire snake collection (largest in Canada) I only helped him 6-7 months, but still that year he got record clutches and offspring’s. You know I am not bragging but simply stating a fact, we both know how dedication pays off, zoos or large scale breeders often don’t have the time to commit, watch and feel the animals they are keeping. I have never kept more animals then I could care for properly, the results have been most rewarding for me, theirs no way zoos could deal with such success with the politics then have at present.
