VenomousReptiles.org Classifieds Detail

Hello,
My name is Joseph Donovan. I've recently graduated with a degree in biology and I'm currently interning at various zoos and facilities to gain experience working with potentially dangerous animals. I've recently completed a 6 month internship at a reptile zoo that doubles as a venom extraction facility. I've gained a lot of knowledge and experience in working with reptiles and I've observed a variety of techniques used for the captive care of venomous reptiles.

I'm writing on this board to find someone who will mentor me in the keeping of venomous snakes. I believe that this experience will further my career as a zookeeper and as a herpetologist. If you have a facility or a diverse collection of animals, I will volunteer my time towards keeping these animals for the duration of my training. I would prefer someone in Florida to train me for 1,000 hours. If you have any advice or would like to volunteer to be a mentor then please respond or send me an e-mail at jodonova@umail.iu.edu. Thank you for your time.
