This is Rio. She’s a little monster (sometimes) but I just love working with this #TyrannasaurusRex. I’ve used her jealousy of another #parrot I love against her, and now we are best buddies forever. ❤️ #blueandgoldmacaw #macaw #macawsofinstagram #parrot #parrotsofinstagram #educationanimal #programanimal #zoo #zookeeper #zoolife #zoolifestyle #conservation #conservationeducation (at Queens Zoo) https://www.instagram.com/p/B378smhJQ8J/?igshid=1ob2qiq8jdoca

New podcast episode available! My favorite kind of animal trainers are those who break the rules!! What I mean by that is that they are the ones who question everything in the name of doing it better. That is why this episode is entitled “Progressive Bird Training.” My special guest Hillary Hankey is one of those trainers who spends every day analyzing, studying and practicing the art and science of animal training with a diverse collection of birds in Southern California. And her results have demonstrated that indeed we can always improve. She describes the spectacular immersive free flight experience guests, students, clients and interns can have when they visit her facility. We discuss practices that can improve the welfare of birds trained for educational presentations, as well as enhance the guest experience. This means diving into how we create motivation, collection planning, the types of behaviors we train and altering guest’s expectations. We also discuss the current trend of free flying companion parrots and some of the things pet owners need to take into consideration. Visit the episode webpage to see video clips and learn more about her online education program the Avian Behavior Lab and future on site workshops.

oh. So proud of my boi. Ruben is my pet boa constrictor. I've raised him to be an educational animal. That means I've socialized him in a way to deal with anyone. Scared people, small people, loud people, a lot of people, no people, other animals, loud environments, etc. He's taught so many people that snakes don't have to be so scary! He's so SWEET. When we lived in Los Angele, some how, we got in to the club circuit. I tell ya, it's wild to be a fly on the wall in the green rooms, vip sections, and back stage areas with a 5.5/6ft reptile. But I'd go to my 8-6 day job designing fashion labels, then come home and get ready to hit the clubs till 4am with local celebs and musicians. Brooke Candy was our girl. She always invited us out, always treated Ruben well, and her entourage always did the same. She always worried about his needs before going on stage with him or at times with out him. #queen. This was the first photo of them ever taken. Since this we've worked with her multiple other times, and now Ruben books a couple gigs a year and affords his own rats haha. He earns his keep! We also always do volunteer educational events too. Being new to Chicago we're still navigating that, but we'll def be at Reptile Fest next year. Ya never know where you're passions will get you. :)⠀ @brookecandy 📸@nikkolamere #westhollywood #snakes #losangeles #gieorgios #snakesofinstagram #reptile #education #conservation #educationanimal #brookecandy #hobby #herpetology #club #clublife #pet #petselfie #selfie #art #artist #hair #makeup #tattoo #model #tattoomodel #female #pussymaketherules #fagmob #queer #fashion http://bit.ly/2V6WObq

I have dug deep in my files for some very interesting videos to get you really thinking about your values. Don’t expect your typical animal ambassador videos today.

It’s National Zookeeper Week! One of my first zoo jobs was working with animals in education programs. My job was to do daily cleaning and feeding. And my favorite part.... training! They needed to be comfortable with handling, transport and groups of people. Pictured here are Hoppy the ferret, a chinchilla and a tiger salamander. We also had a California ground squirrel that would climb up onto your shoulder and promptly pee. Opossums, chickens, tarantulas, walking sticks, hedgehogs, snakes, tortoises, skinks, iguanas and an Amazon parrot named Liberty rounded out the collection. As they say if I knew then what I know now.... oh the things I would have done! I imagine so many more behaviors I would have trained as we had many great candidates. In my consulting work today, we get super creative with animal ambassador training ideas. Education departments have really developed over the years. Many have incredible collections of trained animal ambassadors with highly skilled and educated team members on board. The curriculum is engaging and also meets specific requirements and standards for learning. It’s a good time to be a keeper for the education department. # nationalzookeeperweek #nzkw #nzkw2020 # #imakeeper #educationanimals #ambassadoranimals #tigersalamander #chinchilla #ferret https://www.instagram.com/p/CC8s7Wjlcnk/?igshid=l217irbyf1e9

New podcast episode available! Education animals, animal ambassadors, domestic animals and lab animals are often the ones who get the short end of the stick so to speak, meaning traditionally, participation was often up to the handler and not the animal. Progressive training flips the script. Animals have the choice to participate and when they do, desired consequences happen. As expected, the results are amazing behaviors. However, we are making other discoveries as well. We are seeing the impact it can have on our messaging, on research data, and most importantly on animal welfare. You will get a lot out this podcast that covers a wide variety of species from guinea pigs, rabbits, llamas, snakes, tortoises, chickens, horses, cows, pigs and more. Special guest Annette Pedersen, animal training coordinator from the Copenhagen Zoo shares some great examples and resources you don’t want to miss. I also answer your questions about intermediate and terminal bridges.
