Being part of the Ambassador program is one of the best experiences in my life because not every 15, 16 or 17-year old gets to volunteer in a well know zoo and work right along side the professionals who guide us through our jobs and answer any questions that we may have. Without this, I would never be able to make the difference that I have.
The experience I get from being an ambassador is incredible as it has made me grow as a person and enjoy life a… lot more. I personally love the interaction with the people and love seeing the joy when I let them pat a guinea pig of feed Winnie the kangaroo and let’s not forget the strange questions the little kids ask. But the most amazing part recently was getting to see the three new sleepy baby goats and share the stories with the families who come to see.
