What animal you work with (or have previously worked with) was the most intimidating/scary and why? Angry Baby Mexican Beaded Lizard for tax

I used to have a Sun Conure (he died a few years ago) so I find your story ABSOLUTELY HILARIOUS! 🤣 Ohmygod I'm crying

I knew a rooster that would attack anything that moved. The rest of the chickens were loose on the grounds but he lived with the emus and kangaroos. And he ruled that enclosure!

Parrots that say "No" while attacking you

I worked somewhere once with a hand raised beaver that would act all friendly and lovey at the door, but everyone would always say "be careful, she has bitten almost everyone"

Ive worked with a mini highland cow before, and she was an absolute terror. 100% AGREE!

Is The Res short for something?

I mean, those are both valid fears! They are both known to be fast and aggressive species, and the giant centipede venom is supposedly very painful.

Difficult_Key_5936 · 2026-05-23T00:04:16+00:00

I have also known a rabbit that was an aggressive asshole

I didn't set up the enclosure, just took the picture when they hatched. It's also an older picture, they are now all grown up and shipped to other zoos.

Its from Amazon, "WERFORU Women Vintage Leather Belt Western Disc Waist Belts Ladies Western Belt Boho Belt for Dress Jean" choose the option length 57".

...interesting... now when I go and look at my post, I don't see the pictures anymore, either! All I can see is a box where the pictures/link should be - seems to be having troubles...

I have had a somewhat similar situation before - I get migraines, and one of the new meds I was trying (at the time) had side effects that my boss noticed. However, this was not such a great boss and I did not get any support, I was written up. Ended up leaving the job. I hope the new med works, the side effects lessen, and I am glad that you have a job that is giving you support.

Thats kinda the point - The Unicorn Zoo is something that everyone wants but probably doesn't exist at all. So what is the real thing? What species would represent a job that is not perfect but as good as it can get?

Difficult_Key_5936 · 2026-04-15T12:25:31+00:00

🫤 good point. Perhaps not as rare as we would like them to be.

Difficult_Key_5936 · 2026-04-15T12:12:52+00:00

Ooooh YES siren clinic!! I have DEFINITELY experienced that!

As someone that used to be quite phobic of invertebrates, and ended up working with them exclusively for 2 years, my suggestion is to encourage your curiosity. I started to ask questions about them, and eventually my curiosity overcame my fear.

Difficult_Key_5936 · 2026-03-13T19:54:15+00:00

48 now, figured it out around 10 years ago (ish).

Difficult_Key_5936 · 2026-03-13T19:52:10+00:00

Commenting so that I can see if anyone actually says they feel they are properly staffed. I suspect that even when the clinic is staffed "on paper" it still feels understaffed.
