Today, the Safari makes a return trip to The Nashville Zoo at Grassmere to speak to Jawnie Payne (@zookeeperjawnie)! Jawnie is an outreach specialist keeper who works closely with Jake Belair, the first guest on the podcast! We discuss her career path, some of the incredible animals she takes care of, her caracal kittens that are taking the world by storm, and more!  We also get into a discussion about the lack of diversity in the zookeeping field, and Jawnie shares some thoughts on the importance of representation in the field.  You can check out Jawnie on all the major social medial platforms @zookeeperjawnieCheck out the Nashville Zoo @nashvillezoo  Check out www.rossifari.com, @rossifari on social media, rossifari.redbubble.com for merch, and patreon.com/rossifari to support the pod! All opinions represent Jawnie's own, and do not represent The Nashville Zoo in any way.
