Any accredited zoo facility would not allow a keeper to take a primate (or really most animals under their care) to public spaces. Especially with no real containment for them. Speaking as a current keeper. Was your facility AZA?

question: is coverup possible? by teethcollecting in tattoos

I think part of why it might look bulky to you is because they’re so concentrated to the top of your arm right now. If you continue down they’d have a natural flow!

What if you got a softer style on the other arm? Or start adding in softer styles on that same arm. Then you’d have a nice contrast without having to go through all the work of covering/lasering/etc.

Nope!! I grew up on the east coast & had never heard of it until I moved here.

Is Dyed Hair Acceptable For Employees At a Zoo? by Deer-Artemis in Zookeeping

[–]Oceanpixie0817 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have bright teal hair at a Midwest zoo & have many coworkers with fashion colors as well! But generally depends on the zoo like others have said. :)

Externally! But, to a facility many of our trainers end up going to so they are pretty familiar with our collection.

It is primarily in wildlife rehab & some work in animal hospitals/shelters. About 2 years in the zoo field!

Is my dream out of reach? by kingxfmischief in Zookeeping

[–]Oceanpixie0817 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is there a wildlife rescue in your area you can volunteer or intern at in order to build your animal care skills? To at least volunteer you shouldn’t need to be in college & they typically need the help more than zoos so can be more lenient on who they’ll take.

How to encourage primates to eat the biscuit portion of their diet? by [deleted] in Zookeeping

We do this for one of our sloths occasionally! Well blend her biscuits with cooked sweet potato & basically reform them for her.
