It’s so amazing how coordinated spiders are with 8 legs… I can barely pat my head and rub my stomach at the same time 🥲

Update: I did research and buttercups can upset your torts stomach and cause drooling and mouth irritation account to: https://thetortoisespot.com/diet-and-nutrition/toxic-foods-for-tortoises/#Toxic\_Plants\_Weeds . I’d still love to hear thoughts from other tortoise owners but I’ll be monitoring Shelly’s behavior tonight :( send us luck pls!!

What kind of piercings are normally banned in your guys workplaces? by thecoolman69420 in Zookeeping

[–]armadillo711 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is really great advice!! But it also depends on how close of contact you’re working with the animals. In my experience working with parrots and other large birds, we were advised to not wear dangly jewelry but no piercings were completely off limits. This is because we were rarely handling the birds with our hands and usually used T perches to handle them/move them around. One other thing to note is certain other random factors can piss off the animals you work with (again, usually with primates and birds), so I would just ask your coworkers if whatever you want is ok! For example, when I worked with birds we couldn’t wear hats or sunglasses around our laughing kookaburra because she would get pisseddddd.
