Jun 6, 2023 | The Professional Noticer

On this week’s episode of The Professional Noticer, Andy hosts Paula White and Jordan Danflous from the place Animal Planet calls The Little Zoo That Could!

Tune in to hear Paula and Jordan tell stories about what it’s like to work at a zoo. Watch as they educate Andy about an Emperor Scorpion and a Three banded Armadillo. Listen as they describe what it was like to evacuate the entire zoo–giraffes, lions, tigers, and wolves–before Hurricane Ivan could make landfall.
