Natalie Mears

Hey, my name is Natalie.

I have always had a passion for animals, although never expected to find myself so involved with the ‘scaly’ kind. It all started for me, when a friend-of-a-friend was looking to rehome her corn snake. I of course, couldn’t say no. It was at this point my interest for reptiles began. I was hooked.
Some time later, Christmas was around the corner and I knew exactly what I wanted for Christmas… another snake! And so I decided to visit what I now call ” The Zoo”. After doing some looking around in the pet store, I decided to sit in on a hands-on presentation that was taking place. I came to a realization…this was the perfect job; one where I could combine my love for reptiles with my abillity to talk…alot.
And here I am a few years later, still very much enjoying every day I’m at “The Zoo”, whether it be doing birthday parties, public demonstrations or helping with the care of the many animals.
