An Animal Ambassador is often an animal that either was too injured to be released back in the wild and was trained to educate, or it was born in captivity and not suitable for release, or sometimes zoos will use domestic animals. The hope is that if you see animals up close, you will end up caring more about them.
I think that’s really neat that we’re helping the animals who need some help, as well as educating the public.

Wow, supervising kids overnight is an entirely different set of skills than presenting animals to the public.
I’m sorry the job didn’t come through.

When Covid clears, they will be hosting programs where kids get to sleep overnight at the zoo... I found out part of the job would be being the only adult present throughout the night.... Sounds like my idea of he'll...
