Download or read book We Bought a Zoo written by Benjamin Mee and published by Weinstein Books. This book was released on 2011-11-22 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The remarkable true story of a family who move into a rundown zoo-already a BBC documentary miniseries and excerpted in The Guardian. In the market for a house and an adventure, Benjamin Mee moved his family to an unlikely new home: a dilapidated zoo in the English countryside. Mee had a dream to refurbish the zoo and run it as a family business. His friends and colleagues thought he was crazy. But in 2006, Mee and his wife with their two children, his brother, and his 76-year-old mother moved into the Dartmoor Wildlife Park. Their extended family now included: Solomon, an African lion and scourge of the local golf course; Zak, the rickety Alpha wolf, a broadly benevolent dictator clinging to power; Ronnie, a Brazilian tapir, easily capable of killing a man, but hopelessly soppy; and Sovereign, a jaguar and would-be ninja, who has devised a long term escape plan and implemented it. Nothing was easy, given the family's lack of experience as zookeepers, and what follows is a magical exploration of the mysteries of the animal kingdom, the power of family, and the triumph of hope over tragedy. We Bought a Zoo is a profoundly moving portrait of an unforgettable family living in the most extraordinary circumstances.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pursuing your passion includes a whole lot of crap. For Bud DeYoung, that’s about two hundred pounds a day! Since childhood, Bud had a passion for animals. As an adult, that passion led to the rescue of a bear who lived in his family’s house, then more animals crowding for space, until Bud eventually built an entire private zoo around his home in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. Along the way, a regular visitor named Carrie joined her passion for animals with Bud’s. Together they now educate the public about animal conservation, battle the harsh winters and blazing summers, and daily dole out love to the hundreds of rescued animals in their care. Meanwhile, they teach by example how to make the world a better place while pursuing their passion. Welcome to the fascinating, heartwarming journey of one man, one woman, and an amazing cast of critters, whose stories will warm your soul. Welcome to the wild life of the DeYoung Family Zoo.

Download or read book Living in a Zoo? written by Brenda Lancaster and published by . This book was released on 2007-06-01 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This zany, new study from God's Word, broken into two six-week sessions, will help equip women of all ages to be the women, wives, and moms they were intended to be. Author Brenda Lancaster invites women to take a break from their "zoo" of a life and learn how to apply godly truths in a practical manner. Lancaster's study encourages daily Bible reading, thought-provoking questions and insight into scripture written specifically for women. The daily action assignments guarantee you will not be bored! For the past 19 years, Lancaster has been sharing the lessons God has taught her as she struggled to be the woman God wanted her to be. As a member of Life Community Church (formerly known as Hunter Hills Baptist Church) she has served with enthusiasm as Bible Study coordinator, Sunday School Teacher, and a variety of leadership positions in Ladies Ministry. After answering God's specific call on her life, she founded ZooKeepers Ministries in 2002, a Titus 2 based ministry dedicated to teaching and ministering to young women. She also partners and teaches with Life Renewal Ministries and Center Cross Creative Ministries Conferences in the area of leadership and discipleship training. She is a graduate of the Proverbs 31 Ministries' 2003 She Speaks, speakers and writers conference. Since 1999 Brenda has been guest speaker for various ladies conferences, retreats, and special events. As Brenda Lancaster's pastor and friend it gives me great joy to recommend Brenda as a gifted writer, creative teacher, and captivating speaker who conveys truth, forged in the fires of every day life in a humorous, relevant, and memorable way. I've known Brenda for many years and found her to be a good steward ofall God has given her, a faithful servant who is determined to build God's Kingdom, and a serious soul winner, sharing her faith and leading many into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Brenda is an active, faithful member of Life Community Church. God has given her a unique and very effective Bible study that was not only offered here, but was one of the most effective, life-changing Bible studies our ladies have experienced in some time. Not only was there enthusiasm, excitement, and a record attendance, but numerous testimonies of the life-changing power of Jesus Christ. Brenda has encouraged, inspired, and mentored many young ladies in our church family through small group Bible studies, seminars, and various ladies ministries. I highly recommend Brenda and the ministry God has given her. She will honor our Lord and build His Kingdom. --Jake Thornhill, Jr. Senior Pastor Life Community Church Greensboro, NC "Brenda Lancaster has produced some powerful, lucid, and remarkable insightful material for families and women in particular. Her teachings are biblical, relevant, and desperately needed in today's families. Not only should every woman, mother, husband, and father study Brenda's material, but so should every pastor. A pastor's ministry would be far richer if he preached the content of these study guides to his people. This teaching on the family and womanhood is not like so much on the market today. This is not a gushy mess of sentimental fluffy filler. It is solid biblical meat with spiritual depth. It is some of the best material on the subject I have seen in over forty years of ministry." --Dr Michael K. Moore Founder - Life Renewal Ministries, Inc. Kure Beach, NC

Book excerpt: America's sweetheart, impassioned lifelong animal welfare advocate, and New York Times bestselling author Betty White shares intimate, funny, and enlightening stories about her very best friends in the world… All her life, Betty White has had a menagerie of pets, many of them rescued, and has donated countless hours and resources to animal welfare. Animals are her passion, and that passion extends to zoos and their importance for the conservation of species and for offering humans the ability to witness the grandeur and variety of these magnificent animals from around the world. Betty & Friends is a love letter to those zoos, to their dedicated workers, and especially to the animals in them—from Gita the elephant, whom Betty used to take for walks; to Bruno the orangutan, who flaunts his affections for Betty; to Jacob the boa, who loves a good hug. Gaining access to this majestic world through Betty’s eyes and her inimitable words is a beautiful thing indeed for animal lovers and Betty White lovers of all ages.

Book excerpt: "This story, told by a master teller of such things, does more than take you inside the cages, fences, and walls of a zoo. It takes you inside the human heart, and an elephant's, and a primate's, and on and on. Tom French did in this book what he always does. He took real life and wrote it down for us, with eloquence and feeling and aching detail." -Rick Bragg, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and bestselling author "An insightful and detailed look at the complex life of a zoo and its denizens, both animal and human." -Yann Martel, author of Life of Pi and Beatrice and Virgil Welcome to the savage and surprising world of Zoo Story, an unprecedented account of the secret life of a zoo and its inhabitants. Based on six years of research, the book follows a handful of unforgettable characters at Tampa's Lowry Park Zoo: an alpha chimp with a weakness for blondes, a ferocious tiger who revels in Obsession perfume, and a brilliant but tyrannical CEO known as El Diablo Blanco. The sweeping narrative takes the reader from the African savannah to the forests of Panama and deep into the inner workings of a place some describe as a sanctuary and others condemn as a prison. Zoo Story shows us how these remarkable individuals live, how some die, and what their experiences reveal about the human desire to both exalt and control nature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Sydney Seahorse Takes His Family To The Zoo!" is a delightful story about a father seahorse whose children want a day trip to the zoo, all 2,000 of them! But he relents and takes them. The book is interactive and full of fun facts about seahorses with illustrations that are quirky, & colorful so children can engage while they are learning. My name is Debbi Clark. I was born in Louisville KY and moved to Nashville TN, shortly after high school. I fell in love with this beautiful city, and have never wanted to live anywhere but here. I have written since I could scribble on scraps of paper but never had enough nerve to publish anything until now. God surrounded me with cheerleaders who have encouraged, cheered, pushed, prodded, and goaded me into finally getting this done. I can't stop now, the words keep coming! I love children and I love animals. It was my own life experiences with both children and animals that kept pushing me the hardest. I love making people laugh, hanging with my lovely daughter and my quirky rescue dogs, and writing more books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Head keeper Ken is world-famous for never turning a difficult animal away. Ken's zoo gives a 'last chance', offering a home to all those animals whose misbehaviour or strange habits have led to their exclusion from other zoos. But Ken and his wife adore animals, and have collected a team of keepers who share their passion and their unusual approach to animal care. However naughty or difficult an animal, Ken's zoo will always give them plenty of care and understanding. Remaining forever calm, Ken is infinitely resourceful with his network of world-wide contacts - and always thrives on a crisis. This time, he's got beavers who won't stop building dams, unruly ostriches, a baby crocodile with teething problems, and a baby giraffe afraid of heights ... And, when the Council decide to close the zoo, there's a dragon at the gates ...

Download or read book Zoo Talk written by Patricia G. Patrick and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-09-28 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Founded on the premise that zoos are ‘bilingual’—that the zoo, in the shape of its staff and exhibits, and its visitors speak distinct languages—this enlightening analysis of the informal learning that occurs in zoos examines the ‘speech’ of exhibits and staff as well as the discourse of visitors beginning in the earliest years. Using real-life conversations among visitors as a basis for discussion, the authors interrogate children’s responses to the exhibits and by doing so develop an ‘informal learning model’ and a ‘zoo knowledge model’ that prompts suggestions for activities that classroom educators can use before, during, and after a zoo visit. Their analysis of the ‘visitor voice’ informs creative suggestions for how to enhance the educational experiences of young patrons. By assessing visitors’ entry knowledge and their interpretations of the exhibits, the authors establish a baseline for zoos that helps them to refine their communication with visitors, for example in expanding knowledge of issues concerning biodiversity and biological conservation. The book includes practical advice for zoo and classroom educators about positive ways to prepare for zoo visits, engaging activities during visits, and follow-up work that maximizes the pedagogical benefits. It also reflects on the interplay between the developing role of zoos as facilitators of learning, and the ways in which zoos help visitors assimilate the knowledge on offer. In addition to being essential reading for educators in zoos and in the classroom, this volume is full of insights with much broader contextual relevance for getting the most out of museum visits and field trips in general.
