In Episode 8 we chat to the Head of Education at Five Sisters Zoo, Adam Welsh. Five Sisters is a family run zoo in West Lothian, Scotland. Adam has an interesting background in conservation and an enthusiastic passion for educating people about the natural world. We talk about the role of zoos today in education, conservation and beyond, and discuss endangered species Five Sisters Zoo hosts and supports in the wild. Adam’s passion for his role shines through, and he happily gives some advice on how to get into his line of work. If you’ve ever found yourself wondering how to get a job in a zoo, listen to this podcast!
