How Do Zoos Prepare For Hurricanes?

In this special edition episode, I chat with Zoo Miami Spokesperson and Communication Director, Ron Magill. Ron has been working at Zoo Miami for over 40 years and has seen his fair share of natural disasters. In the wake of Hurricane Ida and recent news of Hurricane Larry, the question needs to be asked…How Do Zoos Prepare For Natural Disasters like Hurricanes? Ron shares his insight and recalls when Zoo Miami was hit by Hurricane Andrew in 1992. He relives the terrifying time and talks about what they learned and how the zoo as a whole could be more prepared for future disasters. This is a MUST LISTEN for any animal care keeper preparing for a natural disaster!
