Our Zoo Team
Dedication. Commitment. Compassion. Getting dirty every day. Those are just a few of the requirements to work at the Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo.
Every member of our staff is devoted to the work at hand, whether it’s trimming a tree branch above a 500-lb. Bengal tiger or teaching 30 kindergarteners how to pronounce the name of a lesser anteater or tamandua (tuh-man-doo-uh). It means being diligent to the care and well-being of our animals 365 days a year, under all conditions, no matter what the circumstances. It means showing kindness and respect to every creature at our zoo. And trying to keep our clothes clean is an impossible feat.
Sharing our passion for animals is not just what we do, it’s who we are,..
