This is definitely a hard post. I went back and forth on whether I should even write about this. When an animal dies, it’s depressing. It’s my least favorite part about working with animals. Godzilla’s sudden death came completely out of left field. He appeared healthy, was eating like a champ, and in less than a week, took a turn for the worse. A necropsy determined he died of kidney failure, a common disease found in captive iguanas. I’m still in shock. It’s like losing a member of the family. As hard as this blog is to write, I need to do it. I need to pay tribute to Godzilla. I also need to share with you, my reader, what it’s like. Working with animals is not always fun. There’s ups and there’s downs. It’s raw and it’s real.
2017 Recap
2017, what an incredible year it has been. I seriously can't believe it has flown by so fast (no pun intended). I decided to put together my favorite moments of each month in pictures- which turned out harder than I thought. After many hours and countless cups of coffee, I finally sorted through my 9,000 + pictures and selected my favorites. 2017 was also big year for me on The Today Show- I included those clips as well.
As always, thank you for the support and following me on my journey working with animals. I hope you enjoy this 2017 recap.
Happy New Years!
