Very enjoyable and informative course. Lakeview Monkey Sanctuary run by two of the most genuinely likeable and hard working people I have ever met. Would recommend the course to anyone wishing to improve the lives of captive animals; things to think about and basic techniques learned as well as ideas gleaned from fellow participants.
Was very enjoyable and knowledgeable course and it was great to work with the teachers and all the participants in the lovely settings of the Lake View Sanctuary
Excellent course amazing teachers would recommend Need colour handouts
Response: Thank you so much for the feedback Pam! We would love to be able to do this with all the pictures and video stills, but unfortunately the cost of doing such a large hand-out document in colour is prohibitive. We would have to put the price of the course up, and we really want to keep it as accessible as possible.
So fun and interesting, really recommend for anyone with an interest in working with captive animals. Just a shame we didn't have more time to build more things!
Absolutely loved the course and everything in it. They also showed us many different training methods. they even showed us some footage of training reptiles something which I didn't even really know was hugely possible. Loved working with these guys and would recommend them to anyone working in the animal industry!
Very Great course. Highly recommend it for anyone wanting to an animal profession and those who are already in it. Always room to learn, very informative. Didn't want it to end!
Excellent course and the trainers are very knowledgeable, experienced and generally nice people. Highly recommend it to everyone, even to those who are already in the zoo industry.
I really enjoyed the course and would highly recommend it to anyone looking to pursue a career in animal care. As with everything there is always room for improvement but in the short time we had there was a lot learnt, I just didn't want the course to end I was enjoying it so much.
Chris and Mark are excellent teachers, very knowledgeable and a great pleasure to spend 4 days with. The facilities, location and the zoo staff we met were equally top notch. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. I learned a lot and would happily do it all again if there is ever a follow on course from the one I have just done.
Definitely worth the money. Great ratio of theory to practice, with an opportunity to see the results of your own hard work. Recommended to everyone on a zookeeping path.
