Hey Priya.... How to do u treat dangerous animals ?

I am sorry if this is a child like question, but do you take samples from animals like rhinos and lions without sedation ?

Also, how can I as a visitor to the zoo contribute to your cause, i am sure millions of people visiting must have an impact on their health.

Wow, it sounds so intense. I have always seen animals in zoo and being able to work with a big cat or a rhino like this, and to train them to make the process simple is something amazing. I would want to watch you guys work someday.

Trained a cheetah [jaw drop]... Drew blood from a rhino... Forgive me for my ignorance, but never had I thought of zoo jobs being so dangerous. I always thought you would sedate the animal with some gun and then treat him... I am happy for you, its a moment to be proud of.

I am an engineer [desk job] and i am just realizing how much I am missing. I will try and get some behind the scene action in the Dallas zoo.

I did not know there were public training sessions. I would definitely try one out. Thanks for the suggestion. And a lion helping you out, that's something to celebrate about
