Frequent trips to the zoo with my father as a child has helped me to foster a strong sense of connection with animals. Out of all my childhood books, the Animal Encyclopedia was probably the book that has been used the most. As a child I would read every available green magazine (child edition of course) in the class library. I can’t remember exactly when my passion for conservation faded away, but my love for animals remained. Currently I am a proud owner and caretaker of three beautiful guinea pigs and a very fluffy dog.
This blog has given me the opportunity to rekindle my childhood passion in conservation at a point in my life where I have the ability to make a change. The change starts now.
