    Houston Zoo

    Hey everybody,
    Well I just got off the phone after an hour interview with the Houston Zoo as a Reptile Keeper. I had applied in Feb and hadn't heard anything since until they emailed me to set up an interview which i had today . I think it went really well and should hear back from them by sometime next week. Keep your fingures crossed for me everyone!

    Re: Houston Zoo

    Thanks guys, chris (cueball) said that he donated a rather aggressive green anaconda, so that would be cool to be near so many BP.net-ers and also work with one of thier animals, like i told chris, at least i would know who to blame for any bites by her!

    The guy I interviewed with said that if he could have it his way, he would have every species of rattlesnake on exhibit, sounds like fun to me!!
