Description

The Safari is about to travel on again, but first I'm bringing you one more interview from the Forth Worth Zoo! In this episode I talk to Tripp and Jessi Gorman, who are an elephant keeper and an outreach keeper, respectively.  They are also a married couple with a young child, which led to some questions about life as a "zoo family."  You'll get to hear about the amazing Elephant Springs exhibit which is opening this spring, some adorable ambassador animals, and learn a lot about a species you probably thought would never appear on this podcast!  The show also starts with a brief celebration of hitting fifty episodes!  SHOW LINKS: Tripp is on Insta @elephantripp Jessi is on Insta @threeringjessi The Fort Worth Zoo is on Insta @fortworthzoo www.fortworthzoo.org - The Official Webpage of The Fort Worth Zoo www.elephantmanagers.com - The Elephant Managers Association website Also, the Facebook group for zookeepers with children is called "Zookeepers With Kids (Human)" which is a wonderful name. ROSSIFARI LINKS: www.rossifari.com - Official Webpage patreon.com/rossifari - Support the pod rossifari.redbubble.com - Merch rossifaripod@gmail.com - Email @rossifari on Insta and Facebook

The Rossifari Podcast brings my love of zoos, aquariums, rescues, and rehab facilities to you! Each episode features an interview with someone who works at one of these facilities. We talk about different species, individual animals, conservation efforts, nutrition...all kinds of stuff. This is a podcast suitable for all ages, but we will discuss topics like mating behaviors and euthanasia. If you're a fan of zoos, or have ever wondered what exactly a zookeeper does, how aquariums manage to keep all that water so clean, or just want to hear a bunch of amazing stories about incredible animals, and the people that take care of them, this is the podcast for you!
