Ex-Zookeeper,
now my brother's keeper
(More of a sheepdog, than a shepherd)

It is not good for man to live alone
(with only the animals).
So I got married and had six children.

One day the zoo-keeper noticed that the orangutan was reading two books: the Bible and Darwin's, Origin of Species. Curiously he asked the ape, "Why are you reading two such opposite books?" "Well," said the orangutan, "I'm trying to figure out if I'm suppose to be my brother's keeper or my keeper's brother." [Author Unknown - and modified a bit]


  The photo on the left is an old, old picture from 1980 when I worked as a carnivore keeper at the Audubon Zoo in New Orleans and trained canines on the side. The photo on the right is of me now old, old - teaching biology and managing a 40 animal classroom, "NCZoo", at Northlake Christian School.

Remember, even Adam, Moses & David learned to lead people by shepherding animals :-)

  This beautiful Clouded Leopard is Mandalay ("Mandy").   She was full grown (they're only 40-50 lbs), and she was more gentle than a house-cat.  I even took naps in her cage on the heated floor during the winter.

  After the Zoo, I lived and worked at a Veterinary clinic, assisting the Vets with emergencies, surgeries, radiology, and anesthesiology. Later when I became a Christian, my heart changed and I began to want to help hurting families. I prayed daily for God to show me if I should switch to people. Not long after that, I developed allergies to all of the animals.  (Coincidence? I don't know), but my decision was easy. 
So
back to school I went - Seminary

One day, 
God's New Eden is coming .... 

 

Isaiah 11:6-10 
"The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, 
The leopard shall lie down with the young goat....
....They shall not hurt nor destroy in all My holy mountain,
For the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord...."

"But ask now the beasts and they shall teach thee;
And the fowls of the air, and they shall tell thee . . . . "
Job 12:7-9
