Yeah! I worked at an aquarium that included a nice-sized rainforest wing. I worked with all of our animals that didn’t require SCUBA or a special vaccine!
Holding a newly-hatched African penguin is my peak experience from my time there! I also have lots of scars.
So…a parrot . I’ve got one. Which is why when I catch myself wondering why people would want a fluffy: a screaming, demanding, messy, little machine full of poop and attitude I remind myself that I’ve already got the real world pet version.
