We answer listener submitted questions. How do Flora & Fauna like being zookeepers? Is it a good job? Is it what you thought it would be when you first started looking into zookeeping? What degrees do you both have?
More importantly, would you rather be stung by an irukandji on your foot or have a falcon stoop into the back of your head?
