050 - The Jackalope and the Unicorn with Jessi and Tripp Gorman of the Fort Worth Zoo

Published: Jan. 12, 2021, 6 a.m.

The Safari is about to travel on again, but first I'm bringing you one more interview from the Forth Worth Zoo! In this episode I talk to Tripp and Jessi Gorman, who are an elephant keeper and an outreach keeper, respectively.  They are also a married couple with a young child, which led to some questions about life as a "zoo family."  You'll get to hear about the amazing Elephant Springs exhibit which is opening this spring, some adorable ambassador animals, and learn a lot about a species you probably thought would never appear on this podcast!  The show also starts with a brief celebration of hitting fifty episodes!
